I considered that because indidnt want to put extra burden on the family and kids as we start the holidays, but i am so close to my out of pocket maximim for insurance that it would be half the cost to have it now.

Our insurance year goes July 1-June 30. I should have the deductible met before surgery and then just have the out of pocket. I know most insurances go Jan 1-Dec 31st, so they wanted me to get in on Dec 6th but I just wanted to have one last holidays with the family where I can have a whole piece of pumpkin pie or scoop of stuffing
