what did your insurance pay?



Recommended Posts

I have united health care and I know they will pay for the surgery because it is preventative but i am concerned they wont pay for the tests that lead up to it I know they don't pay for normal labs except for the once a year bio-metric screening the y require to stay insured.

I have UHC and they paid for all my consults with True Results (6 month mandated visits) They also covered all my tests including EKG, sleep Study etc. They only thing I had to pay out of pocket for was my Psych Evaluation which was 250. They are also paying for my surgery. What plan do you have? I have known that depending on which plan UHC will cover a lot and then other times nothing but the surgery etc. Let us know how the consultation goes today! :D

I have u UHC through my husband company and they covered every thing including psych eval. I didn't have to have sleep study, but did the 6 months visits. I think my out of pocket portion co pay is $581 which I will use the flex spending account to cover!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
