The funny thing is that dentists are perfectly able to give you an accurate price quote, taking your insurance into consideration, and before you've committed to anything.
If they can do it, why the fuck can't doctors do the same? The system is so obviously rotten.
- neltnerb 7y agoAgreed, my neurologist can't even confidently tell me blood work absolutely required for my condition will be covered, much less the price. It took years to find that almost every facility nearby does the tests he orders for no copay at all. But Beth-Israel doesn't see a problem with charging literally over a hundred dollars after insurance for a blood draw. I guess a very big and very evil problem for another time, but our health care system is a house of cards.
- yks 7y agoI don’t know, maybe I don’t have luck with my dentists or my insurance but on every bill some procedures are either downgraded or outright refused to be covered based on some technicality. As usual, insurance finds a way to scam you.
