Bump!
I guess I should do my moderator duty and merge the two threads.
I almost forgot my password. :lol:
That was mildly entertaining.

You guys are awesome.
Exactly!
Who's your health insurance through? I've never heard of anything like that at all :confused: Wife and I both have United Healthcare through our employers and we've never been charged anything like that when either using regular office visits or urgent care.
I'm sorry to be devils advocate, but this is the partial consequence of having an unregulated health system! They get away with it cause they can...
:woohoo:
I requested a billing review. It has something to do with whether your doctor is at a hospital facility or a separate clinic. In the previous incident at a different hospital network, they had moved all facilities under the hospital billing unit for the sole purpose of extending Joint Commission accreditation to all satellite offices. Once they did that, the billing changed to include hospital facility charges. I called bullshit and they dropped the charges.
