BAD surprise the day before surgery!!!

WOW.. so Aetna decided to call me JUST NOW and tell me 400.00 is due tomorrow at the time i check in for surgery. WTF.. WHY less than 24 hrs i am notified of that. and then they said they will be billing me the rest later.. I have already paid 900 to my dr :( :(

I feel like this is not right.. the day before!!!!??? what if i didnt have the money.. geez. I didntrealize i would have to pay this much. I hate Aetna.

Wow so sorry to hear that :( Wishing you well on your surgery though, please check in when you feel up to it!

I don't understand why Aetna is telling you this. Didn't your surgeon's office tell you what you had to pay up front? My coordinator told me what I had to pay up front when they scheduled my surgery. Anyway, I'm sorry you're having to deal with this, but you will manage and then you will be so glad when it's all over. Good luck!!

That is awful I hope it doesn't totally muck up your surgery plans.
