"Covered" but subject to a hefty deductible.

It depends on your own policy/benefits plans (dictated by the employer).

Aetna PPO. it was in an out-patient surgery center. We paid $15. Best freaking $15 ever.

yes Cigna. 300 total out of pocket.

We have CareFirst Blue Choice (Fed) and they covered DH's in Feb. We just had ~$100 out of pocket from various copays.

Most insurance covers a vasectomy but not its reversal. As the PP said, check on the location and also ask if there is an associated facility fee. If the doc does the surgery at a location owned by another entity, you'll probably get a facility fee that may add to your out of pocket.

Find out who will do it, where they will do it, and then call your insurance company.

Yes… but be careful. Ours wasn't going to cover it because they do cover the surgery in a doctor's office. They don't cover the surgery in a out-patient surgery center. The doctor's office we used did it in their own office - but they were calling it an outpatient surgery center, and I spent a bit of time on the phone with both the doctor's office and the insurance figuring out out, but when submitted the right way, it was covered. Almost cost $400 - instead cost just the office visit co-pay. You really do want to call ahead to the insurance. We did, and were glad we weren't surprised.

yes, we have BC/BS.

Yes, for our Aetna, but call them - policies vary. We paid about $400 out of pocket with our coverage. Cheaper than a year's copay on bcp, at least.

I know I should ask this of my insurance company instead, but it is much easier to post on DCUM than it is getting in touch with a human being from Aetna.

So, if you (or your DH) had a vasectomy, was it covered by insurance? If not, how much did you have to pay?
