How much do I have to come out of pocket before surgery

It really depends on your plan. My deductible was met so I didn't pay for anything not even copays. My aunt just had surgery and she had to pay 8500 to the hospital the day of admission

It really does depend on your insurance coverage. I have Kaiser Permanente through work. I had a couple of co-pays for Doctors visits, and then a 250 copay for the operation. The real hidden cost has been paying for all these damn vitamins!

Thanks guys hopefully it's not that much.

Let me know if you have any questions! DR. A has a YouTube channel if you're interested. That's when I made my decision to proceed.

I paid $2000. That was the amount remaining on my deductible.

The day before surgery? Or they billed you after?

I had to pay $2000, and I paid it up front. They gave me a 10% discount for paying prior to the surgery.

I paid $0 for the entire thing, start to finish.

The day before surgery. They would not allow me to make payment arrangements because it was the remaining balance on the deductible.
