They say my deductible is $1900 which is correct but they say I need to pay it all and then my insurance starts paying. No. I don't think so. My insurance company has a contracted fee with the hospital. Out of that amount I only have to pay 20% which goes toward my deductible.

What does your insurance company say?

Beth... thank you!
It's the pain of watching Tina in pain, and when she doesn't feel well and she's down, there is no desire to cook or even take pictures.

Now that she is feeling / coping with her condition, it is a lot more manageable to feel like doing things.

So, what are the doctors going to do for her?

The last contrast CT  was negative, and showing No colon / rectal flow to the vagina area! .... What the CT shows, is evidence of "surgical clips" in the abdominal mid section.
I did research, and found that with some operations like with hysterectomy etc. the surgeon could leave tye-off clips of certain ducts or vessels.

Tuesday, she goes to the surgeon for consultation. ????

Jimmy, I did not get a chance to respond earlier. Surgical clips are really just stitches which show up on some x-rays, scan, etc..no big deal...

Tina had surgery on her abdomen before. Her kidney was removed--they had to tie off the blood vessels; hence surgical clips...
same thing...no big deal..

These are not an issue..never were and never will be...all normal appearing things after surgery of any kind...
