I am disgusted every time I get these statements that break down how much was billed to the insurance. It legit makes me want to vomit. Just walking into the facility costs $700. and each iron infusion costs $686 on top of that. There's even a billing code for insertion of needle into vein for the collection of blood sample. Saline is $100.. but sometimes it comes out to be $83. Then I have my psychiatrist who bills for psychotherapy that never happens. Not sure how he gets away what that for every client he has because he sees 4 people in an hour. I think I'm just mentally done with dealing with doctors these days. I've been seeing them since I was 16 and a lot of them have made my body worse than better. Also.. a lot of the times, people are left not getting their needs met. I have gone through that and have read a lot of people not getting a script for instance, that is sufficient for the entire month or until they get a refill again and they suffer. This happened to my friend who has absolutely no substance abuse history and actually is very healthy and never goes to the doctor. He injured himself and when he went to the doctor for severe back pain to get something for relief, they refused him and sent him home with nothing. What can be done? how do you deal with this kind of thing?
