Rejoicing for insurance!
We have received most of the insurance EOB for the surgery from the doctors and from the hospital. If we were required to pay the full billed amount it would have been over $120,000! With the allowable amount being much, much less of course. Either way it is crazy the cost of medical treatment. The hospital charged a little over $90,000 and was paid just over $36,000. We are counting our blessings for sure.
Slow to update, but such great news!
Sorry being absent for sooo long! It was back to work and being busy. But there is just so much good news to share. First, Tammy has been doing awesome to the point I have to hold her back from doing too much. She is feeling almost 100% most days.
The oncologist had a test performed on the remnants of the cancerous material that was removed, called Oncotype DX, which will tell the doctor the percentage that there will be a reoccurrence of cancer. When Tammy went to get the results she was told that she had the lowest score the doctor has had with a 5% chance! What an awesome God we serve indeed!
