That's good info. Why do they have me doing everything at CMmc I love baptist

I had to do my EGD at CMMC only because at that time I chose it. I knew Dr. Cummins was leaving River Oaks so I didn't mind. I did some prep blood at river oaks. I did my ABG and PFT at work, my PCP did my EKG and Chest X-ray in his office. Yes I was the 1st one at Baptist and they did so well. You have that option to go there. When is your surgery date?

my insurance company is paying 80%. I will owe River Oaks $3800.

Im calling Dr. Cummins office in the morning, I have completed all.requirements from the insurance company. I've had lab work and all.

Wow my insurance paid all but about $500.00. Yes call and ask to speak with DeeDee. She is the surgery coordinator and is awesome with everything. If she is busy say asked to be transferred to her vmail. She will be able to answer all your questions. That way you can see if Baptist is less expensive.
