Cigna Saga Over!



Recommended Posts

I was officially approved!!!! After 19 days of waiting and the I got a yes!!!

So my out of pocket portion is $3800. Hospital says I must pay atleast $1900 upfront. Care credit denied me. Booooo

My credit isnt horrible, just not long standing and also my stupid cc balances are still showing even though i paid both cards off in full last month. grrrr

Alll in all we can come up with the 1900 but I wish I had gotten the carecredit so I could have surgery right away instead of scrambling for a month or so

Congratulations on your approval! You might try talking to a supervisor about your down payment. When I had my gallbladder removed, the hospital called me the day before and wanted something like $1300. Then the wanted $650. I got them down to $500 down with the promise to set up a payment schedule after I got the bill. And I didn't get that for three months!

that woukd be awesome. They told me it is due a week in advance. :( Makes me sad since a friend of minw had the same surgery with the same Dr at the same hospital and didnt have to pay anything upfront. Her deductible was about the same too.

Hopefully, it will all work out. Im definately stressed though.

Praying everyone finds a little peace tonight :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
