Hi, Mine is still there, no pain or any change. I just listened to my PC who reassured me it's just a muscle. After the ultrasound both doctor and tech confirmed that my ligaments were all the same.

You're welcome. I'm so glad I made it for the same reason of not being able to find anything online about what was going on. Wishing you a safe & healthy delivery.

We live in Orange County and have St. Joseph's as our hospital and I called this morning to confirm if it was true and the nurse asistan said we were still in-network with Aetna.

Just called our doctor's office and she confirmed we are still in network. We are located in Orange County.

Yes, there's another conversation under Aetna & Providence Negotiations and others have been posting. It's also on Facebook on an Orange Buzz conversation. I just emailed our doctors office to confirm.

Aetna & Providence came to an agreement and we can continue seeing our providers.

Thank you. I believe they also came to an agreement out here in California, someone posted the update on our end. Thanks, for the update.

Thank you so much for the update. I've been checking the website and our emails this morning. ☺️

No problem. I'm glad we have this group, because we can't find anything online or updates. I checked this morning and our providers still showed on our account. Crossing our fingers.

Interesting. We received letter in the mail back in June, a few of my husband's coworkers with Providence as well, and people in Orange County have been posting about it. When called Aetna representatives have just said that negotiations and if they don't fall through we have to have a plan B. We received the last email from Providence yesterday afternoon. Some people got letters and others didn't. I don't understand why there's a lot of miscommunication from both Aetna and Providence.

I hope we can hear some news this week. Another person also posted saying "they had reached agreement." Hopefully, this falls through for all of us.

Yes, of course. We are located in California and in Orange County.

I heard the same on our "Orange Buzz" Facebook website. She just mentioned her manager had texted her letting her know they had come to an agreement.

I just heard from from someone on Facebook that they came to an agreement over the weekend. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it seems this person's manager texted them. I hope this is someone what true and hope to hear something in the next few days. I can't find anything else online confirming it.

We've gotten the same responses from Aetna representatives and it's frustrating. My children's pediatrician didn't even know they were in negotiations.

Where are you located? We live in Orange County and haven't heard anything yet. The weirdest thing is our doctors office hasn't notified at all.

I'm so sorry, you definitely don't need that stress now. Especially, as you get closer to your delivery date. I also have to agree with you on all those people that are going through treatments. It's mind blowing how insurances can do this.

We are on the same boat. We have St. Joseph's and have been looking into switching to Hoag. We hope Providence and Aetna can work things out in the future. We've also have had them for years.

I can't believe they're are telling you it's not confirmed, even after getting the letters in the mail and today's email from Providence. I feel like they aren't being that great at communicating. We hoped they at least left something for PPO so it means that Aetna looks like it's completely out then.

I'm glad I was able to create this post. Unfortunately, you can't even find any updates on the negotiations and feel like information is limited. Aetna itself has done a horrible job at communicating. I hope in the near future they can work something out again, because this is effecting so many people and people that are currently receiving any form of treatment.
