    Hi All,

    Has anyone had this surgery done with an HMO for insurance?
    If so how much did they cover?
    I have Amerihealth and am wondering if I should even try to get the ball rolling because I certainly am not in a position to be left with large bills.
    Any input would be helpful
    Thanks
    Angie

    Hi Angie...

    I don't have an HMO, but can tell you that it's totally dependent on the individual plan. Do you have a plan booklet? I know they look daunting, but they're usually relatively easy to understand.

    If I had to guess, I'd say that you'd be 100% covered if you chose a doctor and hospital within your plan.

    Regards,
    Linda

      Thanks Linda for your response.
      I know I have to pay 300.00 a day for the first 5 days in the hospital but dont know what else is not covered.

      I go to my primary on thursday to get a referal for a surgeon.
      Today I picked up my old xrays from 7 yeas ago to see if I could get info from them.

      I know I gotten worse will find out soon how much.
