No, what is your coinsurance??? After you pay the 500 to your doctor, you'll pay what every your coinsurance is up to your out of pocket max after the deductible has been met. You can find out if your hospital will bill you so you can make payments on it. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App So I found out that 2000 is already given to us by the employer so I'll only be responsible for 500 Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App What is coinsurance? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App The percentage of what you pay and what your insurance will pay. Example: a silver plan is a 30/70 plan, Meaning, the beneficiary pay 30% after their deductible has been met and the insurance plan pays 70% Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Oh okay the lady said it's 80/20 so does that mean the insurance pays 80 of the out of pocket? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Yes and you'll be responsible for 20% Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

So I called my insurance company (BCBSIL) to check on the status of my approval twice. Once this morning to which they were still reviewing it and just now to which I was informed that it was approved!!! I'm too excited. Should I call my doctors office in the morning or wait until my letter of approval comes in the mail??? Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I have 2500 deductible with a 2000 $ HRA, but my coinsurance is 10% and my Dr bills me so I'm not worried about my out of pocket max. But yes I wanted a December date as well because my deductible had been met and now ima have to weight until February for a date so I can use part of my income tax Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Yes you'll pay that to your surgeon Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Lol im an insurance agent, so I know how the deductible works, I really wanted to know how people plan on hitting their deductibles with surgery dates so soon after the deductible resets ☺ Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

For those of you have January dates that were approved by insurance, do yall have deductibles that yall need to meet if so how are planning on meeting your deductible? Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

My Dr has allowed me to have one meal during my preop diet and it's very strict. Not all Dr's let their patients have a meal during their preop diet, like my momma was instructed to have only liquids which included Jello but my Dr stated I can have one meal but jello is something I'm not allowed to have , not all Dr's require 2 weeks preop diet and some Dr's do not require a preop diet at all Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Well for military standards it's between 115-150 if that helps...if you're going to be weight training you're going to weigh more than someone the same height and size as you. Because muscle weighs more than fat. Hope that helps Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

So I called my insurance to comfirm they received my Predetermination letter yesterday which they confirmed they did...how often did you all call your insurance to check on the status of your approval??? I'm extremely anxious to get it in . Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App
