Self pay with True Results question



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the self pay rate with True Results includes the anesthesiologist?

I've gone through True Results in San Antonio and was told up front that the self pay rate did not include the anesthesiologist. I did ask roughly how much that would be but they couldn't tell me. Did you get a bill?

My daughter was self pay and yes, she received a bill for almost $2500. When she asked if there would be any additional charges at the time she paid True Results, she was told no that would cover it. Guess she will need to call and speak with them about it.

Is that supposed to be for the anesthesiologist? If so, that's crazy. Although my rep couldn't give me an exact cost, he did say it would be a few hundred. I asked several times if the rate they quoted me would be all I have to pay ( plus the anesthesiologist) and was told each time there would be no additional charges. I received a $205 bill from the doctors office about a week after my first appointment. When I called to ask why when I was quoted a set price, they said I needed to speak with the folks at True Results to see if they are covering it. Now I am waiting for TR to get back with me, they said they needed to talk to their management about it. Like you and your daughters, I had my surgery at Turning Point San Antonio. If I get an additional $2500 bill I will not be happy. I sincerely hope this was just a mistake and your daughter doesn't have any hassles getting it fixed.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
