Just got my balance for what my out of pocket will be for RNY. $595.00. That is not bad at all. $520.00 for the surgery and $75.00 for a year of nutritionist counseling with the dietician. Anthesiologist will of course bill separately. So maybe all together i may be out of pocket $1000.00 not to bad

My first hospital bill came in at 47k plus a bunch of others. The total is close to 50k but the insurance rate gets the bill closer to 30k. It looks like I will have about 2k out of pocket but they will be for both surgeries. (I had to have a stricture in my intestine fixed).

I am still not sure what I owe for the surgery itself. I get one bill telling me $35 from the doctors. That is if I read it correctly. Then online on UHC it says $176. I have not received anyone in the mail from my hospital yet showing that balance. Then I just gotta pay for all the other little things. Didn't turn out that bad overall.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
