i have seen hospitals or doc office not charge patient copayment then bill insurance for full fee. Sometimes the payer pay a bit more than some payers only paid what is agreed on.I went to a urgent care had to put on my credit card $300 but my copayment was $35. I complained but needed service. Luckily my visit was paid full amount by payer and did not charge me anymore on credit card of $35. I felt i could be scammed but followed their rules
Ahh tried to go to clinic supported by BIG name hospital in my area. I just wanted to get visit on health my 20minutes in this clinic was over$3,000f. The visit was $500 and each lab fees were trippled.I had to pay over $700 balance cause labs not fully covered. I refuse to go back there. My neighbor had emerg surgery and her lab total was billed 3 separate times on same day. her surgery was $20,000 this was paid. Insurance paid the first lab bill, but she got lab bill for other 2 times same labs and same date. They sent her the double billed lab I told her to complain . Creative accounting
