Out of pocket costs

[annamk 7]

Can anyone tell me about what their out of pocket costs are for the surgery. I've met my deductible for the year, but not max out of pocket costs. I am responsible for 20% of doctor cost and hospital costs. Do doctors require this before surgery? Thanks

You should ask your surgeon - they should be able to tell you - someone in the office will know those numbers - they will know what usually gets covered by insurance and what the balance is. The price I pay in Philadelphia is going to be very different from what you pay in Arkansas! Also depends on whether your team requires an overnight stay in the hospital.

There are too many variables. You should call the surgeon's office and ask.
