Can some of you tell me how much the total bill was on your surgery. I want to hear feed back from you all not a doctors office.

I paid $250 to my Dr for a consultation and paperwork

The rest was $0. I had already met my out of pocket expenses for the year.

Ok....hospital gross bill was over $200k! My insurance negotiated rate was just over 60k. My share is just under 3k.
That doesn't include the surgeon or anesthesia.
I went in at 5am on Friday and was discharged Saturday around 2pm.
Then there were all the other pre op steps.

Mine was out of the ordinary, since I spent 4 days in the hospital due to complications caused by underlying conditions.
My hospital bill was just over $67,000.00.
My surgeon's bill was $14,000.00.
So, just over $81,000.00.
My portion was $850.00 and change with insurance, split about evenly between the hospital and surgeon before my surgery date.
I have a $1,000.00 annual deductable that I met when I paid the $850.00.

$8899 in Florida cash pay. $500 for hotel rooms for 5 nights. 2 prescriptions paid for by insurance (one has otc equivalent, one I didn't need) under $10.

Preop testing, $70, paid by insurance. Psycheval would have been $150 otherwise. (or waived).

Gas money $100.

My total bill including: Pre-op visit fees, surgery center fee, anesthesiologist fee, bariatric surgeon fee, post-op visit fees, and post-op medications was a total of $12,000.

That also includes all expenses for one year post-surgery and lifetime nutrition and exercise counseling.

Not too bad of a deal if you are a cash pay patient.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
