mnmlst 249 Posted December 31, 2014 So the first bill has rolled in. $15k (mostly covered by insurance) for the surgery, room, drugs, etc. I'm wondering how many more bills I'll get -- from the doctors themselves, maybe? How many different bills did you get? I'm wondering how much more we'll have to pay before this is all over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peki31 37 Posted December 31, 2014 I got 1 so far which was the hospital bill for $9,900.00. I expect a bill from the physician, anesthesiologist, lab and radiology. Thankfully I have great insurance and had to pay nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashley_D 6 Posted December 31, 2014 The only bill I've received so far was for $47,000 I had to pay $0 insurance actually paid $4400. I believe this was the hospital bill only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tauruslady5 154 Posted January 1, 2015 I am assuming you made sure your insurance paid for this operation. I have only received a 200 co-pay for the surgeon, a 200 co-pay for my hospital stay and a 35.00 nurse visit charge for my 2-week f/u. If you are receiving bills, and your insurance was to pay, then you need to get ahold of them because they need to make sure they put in the correct codes.

CheleLynn45 615 Posted January 1, 2015 I wasn't expecting any bills since I was told my insurance was covering everything. But three weeks ago I received a bill showing my surgery was over 57,000 and my portion was $250. Well we got on the phone immediately and were told that the portion that was 100% covered was the doctor portion and that we would get a bill from the hospital and the happy juice guy. I was not happy because I would have been putting money away from day one. Well when we spoke with our insurance we were told that the $250 bill is the only bill we will receive. So I guess overall not to bad for everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denise73 89 Posted January 1, 2015 It depends on the insurance. I have a $1000.00 copay for a hospital stay. I paid $150 the day of surgery so I received a bill for $850.00. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnmlst 249 Posted January 2, 2015 So far we've gotten a bill for about $500. Not bad at all, and I knew our insurance didn't cover everything. Just wondering if we'll get more and more bills for other things rolling in... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quest4TheNewMe 225 Posted January 2, 2015 I've been billed for my portion of pathology and anesthesia, from my Nov 13th surgery. I know I'll get something from the hospital. Will have to see what else comes in... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
srp2015 11 Posted January 6, 2015 I was billed over $600.00 for my blood work. I was too told that my insurance covered this procedure. I know that I will end up paying something so I'll just have to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
