[quote=Anonymous]I just got a bill for a routine 20-week anatomy scan for almost $1000. I have insurance (United Healthcare Choice Plus, high deductible) and this was done at an in-network hospital (Washington Hospital) and I'm kind of just aghast that there is no "plan discount" — I am left to pay the full amount. Has anyone 1) Had this experience 2) Felt similarly swollen with rage 3) Done anything about it? Like, chosen a different radiology clinic for a future ultrasound? Disputed claim? Negotiated a discount (supposedly Medstar doesn't do this) I feel extremely frustrated to be paying about $700/month for insurance that doesn't cover routine prenatal care. Just another thing to be angry about as a new parent in America.[/quote]
