C'mon man and fuck you (part deux)
I think this thread got lost, so I am starting another. Tell the stories that piss you off. Only rule is it has to end with "c'mon man!" or "fuck you" or both.
I avoid doctors because insurance has gotten stupid. The latest scam? "Facility charges". I had a previous problem with this. Went to an urgent care. Paid my $100 copay. Then I get billed several hundred in additional charges. What? It was a facilities charge that isn't covered by the copay. I threw several fits and got it removed. C'mon man.
Now it happened again with a different system. So I have an appointment to get my ears cleaned out. Office visit, right? I pay my $30 copay. All good? Nope. They bill the office visit, a surgical charge, and a mystery charge, totaling $697! $257.53 after network discounts. The "facilities charge" is $441, net $202.86. Insurance says they can only process as billed. Now I have to throw another fit.
That's on top of the $342 they billed (net $107.64) for a referral to Ophthalmology, for which I should have had a $60 copay only.
C'mon man. Fuck you.
