Nancy D I had cardiac rehab, as recommended by the surgeon prior to discharge. He ordered it, it was arranged by the hospital and shortly after I got home the rehab nurse called me to get it scheduled. It was covered by my insurance, most have a deductible per visit, but I had met my out of pocket maximum for the year and so it was covered. But I would have paid the deductible some how, it was that important to my full recovery!!

Cheryl Batzing Curtis, I had my surgery Dec. 16, and the cardiac rehab head gal stopped by my room and gave me her card to call her when I was ready to start. I called to start a month later (new year, new deductible....), and my portion CO-PAY WAS $200 a visit! YIKES! I went for 6 visits to know what to do, then they let me go on my own, or I chose to with their blessings. Hope this helps.
