How much did your insurance pay?



Recommended Posts

My insurance will pay 100% after the deductible and will pay me $1000 for using a preferred surgeon. So I will be $500 out of pocket.

They paid nothing i paid it in cash = But 15k later was the best money i have ever spent - If i did not spend it i would most likely be in a URN shortly!

I had a co-pay for the surgeon's fees, which turned out to be about $500. All hospital charges were covered at 100%.

pretty much 99%. I met my out of pocket maximum before surgery but I had other medical stuff throughout the year. So by the time surgery came I paid like $640 which was the hospital stay. i used the rest of my HSA money to pay for that.

I had CIGNA PPO Premium

Pretty much all of it. I had co-pays for doctors visits $30-40, and then some $100-200 co-pays for surgery and procedures. But that is a drop in the hat compared to what it could have been!

I had to pay $710 which was my coinsurance because I had already met my deductible and out of pocket.
