69,000 with a 250 copay. Though I did love those morphine shots!

I'm like Marie,
Blue Cross ...Sharp Medical. I paid $30-$50 for office visit copays only. I felt like I got a big bonus at work!!!!!!! It was such a gift and a blessing.

I am not sure how much the surgery costs, but I get to pay around $1,000 dollars at the end of this month.

I am not sure, but it's all covered by double insurance that my parents have.

YIkes, I feel for you all. I am so thankful and fortunate. I had no copay. I haven't seen the bills, but think they were going to be for somewhere around 35,000.

The hospital billed my insurance $50,810.94 and my Dr billed $26,000. I only had to pay the hospital co-pay of $250. I love my insurance company PacifiCare.

I ended up paying right around 17,000.

The hospital bill would have been right at 36,000 but apparently the doctor worked out a deal if you pre-pay. Pretty sweet.
