Having fun this morning. I got up a bit early, and got showered, dressed, fed the dogs, and got the coffee pot ready to go. Then I headed out to get my blood and pee test to keep my doctors happy and spread some more money around.

The test facility has a good operation going. I signed in on a tablet, mounted to a pole. It said 20 minute wait as the room not full, but had several people ahead of me. I was called pretty much on schedule, and off to the room with just a privacy curtain. They had a humongous wide chair I bet rated for 800 pounds, and almost love seat width. I scooched over to one side, and she had to ask the sign in questions. One of them required me to select one of three options.

Let them bill my insurance for the tests,
I can pay them $505 right now and not bill the insurance,
Screw it all, I ain't paying and I will just leave. Well, OK, it was not worded that way, but yea, I will not pay and no testing will be done is pretty much the same thing.

I can't imagine going there, waiting for the que, and then refusing to pay and leaving. I guess some people think all testing should be free? Who knows.

I chose to let them bill my insurance, I figure I pay for it, let them handle it. And likely the insurance will just knock the price down to $150 or less and pay it.
