4 days out from my life-changing surgery, @Aetna has denied the appeal for my brain surgery.
to be clear, when i signed up to aetna months ago, the coordinator had confirmed they would cover this surgery. then, a week ago, they said the surgery was too experimental/elective and denied coverage. we appealed. that appeal was just denied today.
now, my neurosurgeon is trying to do a peer-to-peer consult with someone at aetna to explain why i need it so we donβt lose the surgery date on monday morning. aetna is not being responsive.
this is sadistic and a violation of basic trust. please spread this so they canβt ignore it. they may not care if i live or die but people should know just what kind of company theyβre dealing with. and please pray they are able to have a peer-to-peer consult with my neurosurgeon and have a change of heart.
@SenMullin Hereβs what it really represents:
47th in education
45th in healthcare
44th in median household income
43rd in life expectancy
1st in incarceration rate
2nd in teen pregnancy
3rd in reliance on federal aid
God bless Oklahoma. Yβall need it.
