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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
