So just got the itemized statement for my procedure on 10/17. I had RNY with the da Vinci robotic surgical system. Stayed in the hospital for 4 days.

$57,746!!!!

My insurance covered all but the $275 copay for my inpatient procedure and $25 for the nutritionist.

Crazy bill!

wow wow that is a bunch of money so glad you part was so small.

Amazing. My first surgery was 50k. Not sure about the second.

[BBdoodle 483]

Crazy huh??? I think mine was something like 50K but what the ins. acutally pays is less than half. Who cares....let them work it out as long as you don't have to pay - LOL

[TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280]

Mine was 20,000 my ins cover it all but I pay 175 nutrionist & the nut

[So0n2bSliM 41]

Mine was $27,700 and 35 to dietician and psych

[So0n2bSliM 41]

Insurance paid everything but my $400 copay to the hospital and the $35 for other visits

[kisersassy 369]

my insurance paid every penny of surgery and NUT and psych evaluation. only 100 deductible that was paid in January and no co pays.

Yeah that was due to my extra time in the operating room it went from a 1.5 hr surgery to a 7.5 hr surgery because of my complication and also I was in ICU which was $4500.00 a day then a regular room for $1300.00 a day so in all I stayed 8 days plus everything else yeah its really expensive
