I think I am about to be going through a divorce. My husband and I have been "in the thick of it" for almost a year and the last couple weeks have shown me that things are not getting better. I think I'm at the end of my rope. I was having concerns 3 yrs ago, but really was able to confront issues this year. We've been married for 6 years, together 9, and have a 2 year old. I'm 30 years old. My family isn't super supportive. I'm nervous, scared, worried, all the things.
Doctor’s don’t generally know the cost side of the surgery business. You gotta try and talk to someone that does insurance benefits/hospital billing.
GLG call, ask your one question then end the discussion before you're billed
Yeah give the billing department a call.
Billing already gave me an amount which seems high. I want to check if it high or about right
You can price shop with other hospitals in the area. Also ask for self-pay discounts and prompt pay discounts. I wouldn’t trust a physician to be able to tell you accurate pricing over a $15/hour back office staff member.
