Aetna PPO/Honda coverage
I am curious. Has anyone here ever been approved by Aetna/Honda in the past year? After speaking with the insurance rep at my surgeon's office, she tells me there was only one person she could think of that has been approved and there are virtually hundreds who have been denied. Seems not only do we have to meet the 6 months documented weight loss attempt but Honda added in January of 2003 that we must provide for them 2 consecutive years of it as well. I've got a full two consecutive years of weight loss attempt (heck, my WHOLE life has been one massive weight loss attempt) but, its not documented they way THEY want to see it documented (nutritionist was my PCP but that isn't good enough).
If you've been approved, please e-mail me and let me know how you did it. My PCP is backing me 100% and so is my cardiologist. They feel by stating there is a medical necessity it would do the trick. I'm not that optimisitc!
