Having finally recd an accounting of my Oct '23 ablation at St David's in Austin, I am curious about other's experience. The "unnegotiated" (cash) total hospital services price (not including doc's bills, which in comparison were minimal) was about $286K. Of course, the negotiated amount, $55K, actually paid by Ins (BCBS) was unrelated to the cash price. I paid about $1600. (Good insurance - don't grow old in the US without it).
Questions: I am curious of 1) the price tag others have experienced? and 2) How receptive are Ins companies to second, third ablations?
Thanks for any info you can offer.

FuzzyDuck-
My experience at St David's was very good. One surprise was that I was asked for a $2500 deposit payment when I arrived. I was able to put it on a credit card, but otherwise I didn't have means to pay that with me. Be prepared. Good luck.
