Yes, Tricare told me he cant bill me but he is. My issue with him is he accepted payment from Tricare for my eval so how can he NOT take it for the surgery?
-
Thanks for the response........my doc is telling me he chares $5000.00 for surery and Tricare is payin $992.00 so he wants me to pay the balance and Tricare is telling me that is not right

I am Tricare Prime so that means I should only be responsible for my $30.00 co pay -
Just looking for some reccomendations on Dr Jesse near Tampa Fl

I was approved by Tricare with no problems then the docs office called and told me that he charges $5000.00 for the surgery and insurance only pays $992.00 so he wants me to pay $4008.00????? I am insurance approved and now will not get my band because of this. I just cant believe it:mad2::smile2::mad2::wub::mad2::mad2::mad2::mad2::mad2:

It stinks because until today I really liked him. Am I crazy for thinking it may all be a mixup on there part?

Hey all, Just looking for soem info on anyone in Jacksonville that had surgery and was approved through tricare. Thanks:thumbup: -
Yes, I have and they are having a Patient Representative contact the doctors office. Not sure I want to go back if I think they are mad at me and he is the only one in town.

Tricare says he is a network physician and cannot bal bill me but the doc office said she can because they are not contracted for bariatric surgery, tricare says they cant pick so I am waiting review. They did however say he may be submitting under a different tax ID # and then they can get away with balance billing
-
Tricare says the doc is wrong but I dont know.
-
According to my insurance Co.............the doc cannot bill me the difference. Its not like I want to argue with the person who is going to open me up, ya know??

I Got My Surgery Date...Where Are The November Bandsters?
mljalways replied to Cappy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Is there anyone from Florida being banded in November?? -
There was a time about 6 months ago that I would throw the idea out there during casual conversation and my Dh's response would be " oh you dont need that"..........when I brought it up seriously and told him I wanted it for me and to get me off diabetic medication he was totally supportive. Good luck but remember this is about you!

Not denied, but more testing needed...so discouraged.
mljalways replied to tomatogirl's topic in Insurance & Financing
I was just denied the nutrionist appt and I too have to pay out of pocket for the physch eval, thankfully my total should only come to 300.00 dollars. I have found that there are extreme differences in the west and the south. The west is much more difficult! -
I know how you feel...my date is Nov 11, it seems so far away! Good luck
