You end up fronting costs with a high deductible plan, but consider 1) looking for specialists that are in network 2) comparing price between specialists (this won't be a lot, but if you can knock off $50 why not 3) asking if there is a discount for paying cash directly to the provider - this saves them administrative burden with insurance billing.
If you would prefer to not pay a lot upfront, consider a PPO plan with a lower deductible. Your premiums will be higher but if you go to the doctor frequently, it can lead to more cost savings.
Thank you, very helpful!

Use a comparison service such as Castlight to compare costs across providers. But primarily, with that plan (I have the same one) you’ll experience some initial sticker shock but ultimately building up your HSA and tracking your spending to predict/inform decisions will help you.
Thank you! I used the Aetna app for estimated cost, but seems it was not very accurate. Will try castlight.
