Confused about my insurance verification form. I see a number at oop, a different number for oop met and hospital copay. I understand the hospital copay, but not totally sure about the other two. Does anyone know how to interpret? I feel silly for asking.

Why isn't your surgeon office filling these forms out for you?? My surgeons office dealt with my insurance company in my case.

Your insurance usually has a website to go on to find this information. OOP is your out of pocket, this is the amount you must pay out of pocket and usually once it is met you pay zero depending on your plan. The oop met means how much of your out of pocket expense you have paid so far. I hope this helps.

My surgeons office did call the insurance company and they sent me the verification form. I just wasn't sure about my oop total. There were a few terms I was unfamiliar with. I will call tomorrow to get clarification but thought I'd get some input here.

Thanks all!

Ok, so it looks like if I have the surgery before the year is out, I'm looking at about $800ish oop. However EVERYTHING changes with the hubbs insurance at the first of the year. Called surgeons office to get more clarification and left a message. My face right now? :-/

On another note, I had a baby this year as well as in 2011 and I believe that has something to do with my oop amount. So if you have recently had a baby might wanna take that into consideration.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
