BCBSIL Hernia Surgery

[ShayB78 10]

I am going through Hernia repair to have insurance help with some of the financial burden since I have Hiatal Hernia. I have a high deductible plan with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois. Has anyone had any trouble with getting BCBSIL to pay a portion for the surgical procedure? I checked my plan and it looks like they were billed $17,500 and only paid $118.90 to the claim? I am NOT going through with this procedure if this will be my out of pocket expense. Waaaayyy more than what I was told to expect by True Results...on top of owing the $3900 for the sleeve itself!!

Is the doctor you selected in the plan? have you already met your deductibles?

It only works if the Dr and hospital are in network.

Did you ever find out from True Results about the cost for your endoscopy? I am going through them for gastric sleeve surgery and getting it done through having a hiatal hernia as well. I got a similar bill for the Endoscopy. Do they expect us to pay that??
