Self pay with True Results question



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the self pay rate with True Results includes the anesthesiologist?

I've gone through True Results in San Antonio and was told up front that the self pay rate did not include the anesthesiologist. I did ask roughly how much that would be but they couldn't tell me. Did you get a bill?

My daughter was self pay and yes, she received a bill for almost $2500. When she asked if there would be any additional charges at the time she paid True Results, she was told no that would cover it. Guess she will need to call and speak with them about it.

Is that supposed to be for the anesthesiologist? If so, that's crazy. Although my rep couldn't give me an exact cost, he did say it would be a few hundred. I asked several times if the rate they quoted me would be all I have to pay ( plus the anesthesiologist) and was told each time there would be no additional charges. I received a $205 bill from the doctors office about a week after my first appointment. When I called to ask why when I was quoted a set price, they said I needed to speak with the folks at True Results to see if they are covering it. Now I am waiting for TR to get back with me, they said they needed to talk to their management about it. Like you and your daughters, I had my surgery at Turning Point San Antonio. If I get an additional $2500 bill I will not be happy. I sincerely hope this was just a mistake and your daughter doesn't have any hassles getting it fixed.

      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.

        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!
