Aetna Health Ins

Aetna Health insurance I have, and I wondered?

ok, I said that Aetna covers 100% of procedures, and all I have to pay co-payments. I was thinking in going to Mexico (I live in California) and have a gastric LAP-band procedure done. my insurance pay for it, seeing that your in another country? certainly not a elective surgery, says my insurance to pay for bariatric surgery, if I have a BMI over 40, what I do. Just need to know if they are not covered by the place where would be done.

In general, prior approval must be given to bariatric surgery. Contact Aetna at the number of service customer in the back of your card and ask about the pre-approval process. At that time, you can also ask if you would be able to obtain approval prior to surgery in a foreign country. (My gut tells me it will not be approved for a departure from the country of the supplier in general and surgery that can only be approved for a network provider. But you can ask Aetna to confirm.)
