After I had the surgery, I received the detailed billing from the hospital for a total of around $62,000. Shortly after which I received the payment statment from my insurance company. They paid just under $2,000. The balance of the bill is written off by the hospital in agreement with the insurance company prior to the surgery taking place. They never pay the full amount that is actually billed. I would call your insurance company and ask them what happens with the remaining balance of the surgery. You may have a co-pay for the surgery, mine was $500. But other than that the costs associated with the hospital, surgeon and other personnel are covered in the contracts laid out between the insurance carriers and the businesses involved. Good luck.
