NCHope 0 Posted April 9, 2012 HI, We all talk about ins. covering/ not covering. I thought it would be interesting to know exactly how much your ins. does cover. If I'm approved my ins. BCBS anthem of Ohio (even though I live in NC) will cover 85%. Anyone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonnaMP 13 Posted April 9, 2012 My United Healthcare paid all but $35 co-pay for the first visit. When I go for a fill, I pay $35. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWgirl 574 Posted April 9, 2012 My insurance required a center of excellence and would pay 80%. My cap on yearly out of pocket is $3000, so combined with all appointments this year I will only pay $3000 for healthcare. Actual surgery costs look like approx $800.

KassieRose 60 Posted April 13, 2012 I have Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas and the surgery was 17,000 and I paid 647 once all the bills came in, which gave me free fills and office visits for life so I don't ever have to pay a co pay or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buffalogyrl 17 Posted April 13, 2012 I'm self pay in DC I'm paying 15k out of pocket financing 10k. Since I'm the first self pay they have ever had in the clinic they do not participate in the GE care card program so had to take out a personal loan. The cost includes. One year of fills, 23 hr of hospital stays and 4 f/up visits. I'm hoping to my $ next week so I can schedule surgery. Although do to the insanity of my job and my limited amount of leaving I'm not scheduling until end of May. I'm so anxious I just want to get started with ,y new life.
