[quote=Anonymous]Currently under Aetna federal plans and will be doing a fresh cycle here in a few months. I previously had Federal BCBS but switched in order to take advantage of SGF's negotiated rate for FETs.

I will need to get preauthorization from Aetna for a fresh cycle. I will qualify for their infertility coverage based on my endometriosis and having tried other less expensive ART treatments no I'm not worried about that. What I'd like to know:

- Should I just continue using Prosperity Pharmacy for meds? They are great and I've heard Aetna just jacks up the meds price. I will price it out of course, but will it be less hassle to just use who I've used in the past?
-Were you successful in getting ICSI covered? We needed it for a previous IVF so I'm wondering if that's enough justification to get it covered this time around?
- Were you successful in getting PGD or CGH covered to test for normal embryos? No known genetic issues here. 
-How long does it take for preauthorization to kick in? Are we talking weeks or months?
-What else am I not thinking of?[/quote]
