These are lessons learned I guess for me. I fought my insurance company for two years and even had an attorney involved..still ended up being self pay. At the very end I asked the "insurance person" what else can I do..she said well save your reciepts and submit them and maybe you can get some of them reimbursed. I mentioned this to my doctor and he said that one of his patients did the same thing and got all but the surgeons bill reimbursed. When I originally submitted them the hosp bill was denied because I didn't get "precertification" before admittance. So I called the insurance co and said I have 2 yrs of denial of the surgery..they said that is for the surgery not the hosp stay. They may be able to code the hosp stay a certain way before you get there that you don't pay before hand..just a thought!! My was 3 seperate charges..surgery, anes., hosp stay. I hope this makes sense.
