Went to Doctor for lung biopsy, requested quote since Dr. Was non participant in BC/BS. Was quoted $1700. The Dr. Knew exactly what was required before hand. After the surgery I was billed over $3000. I was told the biopsy was a resection. Different name for the same result, a specimen for the pathologist.
Despite my efforts they refused to reduce their fee to the originally quoted amount. They generously knocked off $200. Ha, and I work in the operating room at a different location. A liar and a ripoff!
