2 weeks ago my wife and baby got sick with sinus and ear infection. Called a pediatrician (we don't usually go in for anything) They asked me what kind of insurance I had and to send in pictures of my insurance card. I did all of this and they said I was good to go with the appointment that day.

Today I got a text from the doctors office: "Your family was seen and your insurance denied the claim as we are out of network. There is a balance of $750 ."

Why couldn't they tell me the insurance was out of network when I sent in my insurance info before the appts? I don't really know how this stuff works but it's not right. $750 is a lot of money for us.. anything you think I can do? Thanks guys

also demand an itemized bill of all the charges and make sure they submitted it to the insurance company properly...
