Guest guest Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Shirley BCBS did pay the $20,000 hospital bill, which was nice to find out after knowing I had to pay the majority of the surgeons fees. Like I said before, the total costs are approximately $25,000, and I can't really complain if Ihad to pay $4000 of it. I am very happy so far with my results. > Hi , I agree with you about what BCBS allows for non- > participating OS.
