They ran my high deductible UHC card and admitted it would probably not cover much.
No problem. I have a HSA with plenty of dough ready to go.
So far here is what has trickled in.
$165.92 - New Patient Visit.
$90 - Cauterize and remove the thingy.
$178 - Pathologist examine the thingy.
Total so far = $453.92.
Is this in the zone? Thanks. I just can't believe it but again I don't have much experience at the doctor.
