She was going over the insurance approval process and billing side of the surgery. My insurance is $1,000 deductible for the year (I think I still owe about $670 or so towards that) and the insurance pays 80% and I pay 20%.<\/p>\n<p>So I owe my doctor $482 for surgery and I have a $629 balance on my account. For my pre-op appointment on Monday, she wanted the full $482 but I told her I don&#8217;t have that since we&#8217;re between paydays. So on Monday I&#8217;ll bring $300 and then on Friday the 7th (Love&#8217;s payday) we&#8217;ll pay another $211. (Bringing my balance down to a flat $600.)<\/p>\n<p>Okay, fine. The problem is that apparently I need to bring money upfront to the <I><B>hospital<\/b><\/i> too on Monday. Problem is, I don&#8217;t know how much they&#8217;re going to require.<\/p>\n<p>Problem is that until the 7th, we&#8217;ll only have about $200 left in the fund, cash on hand. If the minimum they want is my deductible amount, I&#8217;m $400-odd dollars short. If they want some percentage of the 20%, I&#8217;m completely screwed.<\/p>\n<p>I broke down crying on the phone with my Mom because I just can&#8217;t bear to come this far and have to postpone or delay it for more money woes. I just can&#8217;t. This constant money worry is killing me. I just want to get on with my damned life.<\/p>\n<p>So now I won&#8217;t know anything until Monday. Mom thinks we can &#8220;work with them&#8221; but I&#8217;m not as confident. If they want a set amount and I don&#8217;t have it, I don&#8217;t know&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>8 days and counting.
