HELP!! Not covered by ins. self pay



Recommended Posts

It was awesome. My insurance paid for a hernia repair and I paid for the Lapland (5500) my payments are 190 a month for 3 years. That includes 12 months of fills and aftercare also. Like I said no credit check at all. They have you apply for care credit but if you are denied. They. Finance you no questions asked

Did you have to pay any money upfront?

Just my insurance deductible at the surgery center. It was easy and I had surgery 1 month after I decided to do it. Could have been sooner but I couldn't get the time off work

I'm scheduled for Thursday to have surgery. The lady isn't answering my questions quickly enough... All I've paid so far is $25. I just don't want any financial surprises come Thursday.

I

My insurance paid for the ECG and my understanding is that it will also pay for the hernia repair. My out of pocket is $5500.

Do you have a preop approach at truresults next week? they should finalize it then. If you are insurance pay I would assume they will collect your deductible whatever it is at the surgery center. Mine was 200 you Can find out your deductible on your insurance card.

What is a preop approach? I'm supposed to have surgery to get the band in.

That is weird. I had to go to a pre operative appointment before surgery.

They scheduled both of my appointments during my first consult.

I understand. Well if your insurance paid for your ecg you shouldn't have to pay anything. They collected my deductible at the surgery center the day I had my ecg. I think you'll be good. Good luck to you!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
