So I go to an in-network dentist, and after getting a crown they expect me to pay some of the $1000+ bill. However, after they bill my insurance the insurance company discounts it down to like $600, then tells me I only have to pay 75% -- so like $150. But I get strange looks when I ask the secretary to just "send me a bill".
The other day I went to an in-network eye doctor, and after my contact lens exam the secretary says that I have to pay the $43.25 co-pay before I can leave. I tell her to bill my insurance and she says co-pay is due at time of service. But my insurance says I should pay $0 co-pay and get $130 towards my exam and lenses. Sooo now I'm out $43.25? Do I request reimbursement from my insurance?
So confused...any help/tips are appreciated!
