The amount insurance covers is NOT what colorado babe ended up having to pay, i.e. if insurance covered 26K and the procedure was 132K then she had to pay 106K out of pocket. Putting the price down as 26K on your sheet is misleading since no one is going to pay that amount for that procedure even with insurance (it is just what the insurance company was willing to cover).
The amount Insurance paid on the spreadsheet is correct. I only paid $25.00 Jeff.
