upfront cost bcbs trs activecare 2???

hello!

i live in texas and have bcbs thru trs activecare 2.  i have a coworker that had gastric back in nov 09 and i'm wondering how much are the upfront fees?  is it jus the $500 deductible?  i've looked at all the req for the ins and i met all of them but i can't find anything clear about the cost.

Your policy likely changes a bit from year to year so it's hard telling if you are comparing to your coworker. Also, someone else may have the same ins as you but through a different employer so the policy would again be different.

There is really no way to tell you your up front fees because you'll likely have a program fee through your surgeon that ins will not cover.
