You should be able to find that information with your carrier so it won't be a surprise.

Call them. At least with my insurance (not Cigna), I had the hospital copay (easily found on the insurance website), doctor’s copay, and anesthesiologist copay. Also know whether you get some surgical follow-ups included with the price of surgery (I got 90 days, but my surgeon’s office kept trying to bill me.). The hospital overcharged me by $150 (not given the discount for being a center of excellence) and the surgeon kept trying to charge me for follow ups, so understanding my insurance likely saved me hundreds of dollars.

I have a surgeon's copay of $200, a $100 per night copay with a max of $500, and no anesthesia copay. I have already paid $40 for my consult, $116 for the EGD, $196 for my surgeon copay for the EGD, $30 for one nutrition appointment, and $30 for my psych eval. You should be able to find the costs of everything in your insurance benefits booklet.

I still have another appointment with my primary for my final nutrition visit then I have to do the nutrition consult with my surgeons office. I'm going to call them next week and see if I can do that between now and my final nutrition appointment so they can submit everything.
