I, too, am confused.
assuming Medicare approves a claim, dont they pay 80 percent? Your BCBS would then pick up the remaining 20 percent. Without the Bcbs or some other supplement), you would pay the 20 percent (and all copays, deductibles, etc) out of pocket. Please, someone, correct me if I'm wrong.
