Aetna Insurance...Now allowing bariatric surgery!
This is a copy of my hubby's email he received at Aetna - (he is an employee..)
Bariatric Surgery Reinstated as a Covered Procedure
Bariatric surgery (gastrointestinal surgery for people who are severely obese and who suffer from serious obesity-related health problems) will be reinstated as a covered procedure for all Aetna health plans. There will be a member cost-sharing of 50 percent, with no lifetime maximum. To receive this benefit, members must use a preferred care (in-network) doctor and hospital. Check your plan's Summary of Benefits for details.
