Question:
Has anyone gotten approval using Aetna MC
what did they require from you and how long did it take for approval? — Stacy I. (posted on July 23, 2002)

Yes I got approved and quickly. They asked for a diet history and a letter
from the surgeon. I did call member services and double checked what they
needed and got a specific names and number for my docs office to fax it to
I think that may have expedited the process a bit. Good Luck

I have AEtna US Healthcare MC and had absolutely no trouble being approved
with a BMI of 42 and few co-morbities. My PCP wrote a quick note on a
script pad saying he recommended me for WLS due to orthopedic problems and
I had history of one medically supervised diet 12 years earlier. I also
know of six co-workers of mine who were approved under the same plan with
no difficulties. Good luck to you.
