Bariatric Buddy
Bariatric Surgery bill paid!
I checked my BCBS of MI website and my $28,000 (14,000ish after the hospital gave them a discount) bill was paid in full. 100%. No hassles. I almost cried.
I knew it was supposed to be covered but without a letter of pre-approval I worried... all they said when I inquired was that they informed the doctor that I met all of their requirements... I just had to go on faith and the surgeon's insurance specialist telling me that they would not have scheduled me if she was not sure... still I was apprehensive to say the least!
Now... RELIEF and weight loss! YEAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
