Ok I my insurance pays 80/20 and I have out of pocket max of 1500. I have to pay surgeon 800. How does the hospital bill will I have to pay them upfront or what??? The most I can pay out is 1500 but I just want to know and they are busy and I've left voicemails no callbacks
-
Thanks guys! I spoke with the hosp and got everything taken care of. I've saving for this surgery all year just didn't want to have to delay it any more. But I'm good surgery day is still 7/2/13 830am ☺☺☺

So if my deductible is 300 but my out of pocket max is 1500. What I'm I looking at paying up front is what's confusing will the 800 the surgeon is charging me go towards that or will I have to pay him 800 and the hosp 1500?
-
Ok I thought so but my surgeon is asking for 800 upfront

I received my approval last week for surgery. I have a appointment tomorrow with my dr for pre op stuff and to pick a surgery date. I want to get it done ASAP but I have a Disney vacation planned from 6/24-6/29 is it a good idea to get this surgery before this trip. Meaning like getting it done may 30 by then ill be almost 30 days post op?
-
Got my date. And I'm TERRIFIED of the 14 day diet. I was told by the nurse that you have to lose a certain amount are they will reschedule your surgery and you will have to do the PRE op diet all over again. How will I survive those 14 days of horror!!!!!
