Tuesday

I switched insurance beginning the 1st of this year and I’ve learned to ask what it pays for first before any procedure (if at all possible). I really hate that we have to be so hyper vigilant about it. In one instance I had x rays (in April) and the radiologist’s office billed my old insurance despite the fact I showed my new insurance card to the receptionist prior to having the X-rays and I saw that she copied it with my orders from the doctor. Of course my old insurance just sent me an EOB with the claim denied just to confuse me more. Hadda make 4 phone calls to straighten it out.

Good luck with your scan!
