Implant is done (one year anniversary 04/29/16)

[RelievedofED1]

I was ready to travel 900 miles as soon as possible for him to do my replacement implant after conversing with him. Quick response and said all the correct words but he is not a United Healthcare provider. Talking to a U of MMC financial department person, they may never be. Bottom line is they get more $$ when you have to pay part of the bill too.

Sorry to hear that. It can get incredibly and impossibly expensive if you are a cash payer with no agreed upon rates. Hope you can figure something out that will allow you to get help.

Thank You billb603. This is getting to the point it is eating on me again. I kept waking up all night and it was the only thing I thought about. I am going on 7 years since permanent full time ED post prostatectomy. Hard to believe that it consumes this much time and so many doctor visits and I still do not have an implant I can live with. Healthcare is broken in many ways world wide. Much improved on my end since the ACA went into effect and ended some issues soon coming my way like lifetime limits and the rate roll back was nice with the $800 rebate checks but healthcare is still broken.
