Surgery cost

[dreamingofasleeve 89]

Hi all!

I am just trying to see what surgery cost out of pocket after deductible was?

I have blue Cross blue shield. I have already almost met my deductible with pre op screenings ECT.

How much did you pay after you met deductible?

I know this may be a sensitive subject for some but I am just trying to prepare the best I can! Don't feel obligated to answer!

After deductible you then have your maximum out of pocket. My deductible was 1300 then another 3200 max oop. Total 4500. Bcbs

Unfortunately you cannot base what your cost is going to be based on info from others who have BCBS. I work in medical billing. There are many different plans and there are a lot of things that come into play. You are better off contacting your insurance directly and have all info available such as the hospital where you will be having surgery, the surgeon etc. It depends on whether your are using doctors and facilities that are in network or not. A lot of factors...

Yeah I thought I would be able to get an idea but after the 2 responses I realized it will be different for everyone.
