[quote=Anonymous]We had this issue. We are in DC and have non-Fed Carefirst. My child had therapy at Children's National and and the insurance co charged us a $50 facility fee for every (weekly!) visit plus the co-pay for the therapy visit. We were also seeing a number of doctors there and so often had two visits a week! We ended up seeing a different non-hospital therapist where we had to pay out of pocket, but had a better rapport with our child and we figured we would rather pay the $100 straight to them plus not have to deal with parking at Childrens. I know it's not always an option though. We also, when we have to see other doctors at Children's usually opt to see them in the Fairfax office b/c, yes, we would rather drive to Merrifield than the main hospital campus that is 10 mins from our house!!!! Anyway, the facility fee issue was with the insurance co, not the hospital. [/quote]
