had my surgery there. all the bills have been submitted and all have been paid (the NS just submitted, so that has not yet been processed).
Even there was a doctor (neurologist for SEP monitoring) out of network that somehow got negotiated into the plan. they preauthorized everything. I called about 5 times before the surgery to make sure it was all set.
It actually went very smoothly!
This was for a covered procedure under my plan. Oxford does not currently approve cervical ADRs!! Glad I didn't have to agonize that decision on some level.
