731

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

It's perfectly legal. You should know which providers are and aren't in your network coverage. Yes it's jewish. Yes it's stupid. blah blah blah blah You're an adult. These are things you should know. Yes it sucks. Sure, but your kid is alright I hope.

https://poal.co/s/CRYPTO/517271 = https://archive.ph/6eJYJ You have enough expendible money to dabble in (((crypto))) but $730 is a lot for you?

I call BS.

https://poal.co/s/TellPoal/475745 = https://archive.ph/vzljJ You work in a hospital and don't know this BASIC fact of insurance life?

There's no way this is real.

You're right I was just seeing if people would figure it out. There's a reason you wear the crown.
