[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the OP, we are on a high deductible plan and I routinely decline excess testing for my family that I don’t want to be charged for. A common example - take child in for sore throat/suspicion of strep. On our HMO, they would also test for flu because why not? On the high deductible I say, no just test for strep. Strep comes back positive, antibiotics given. They can always test for flu after if the strep is negative. But I don’t need to pay for them to throw spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks.[/quote] Nice story, but in the OP's case, the pregnancy test is not "excess" and in fact was one of the first things that needed to be ruled out in a young woman presenting with GI issues.[/quote]
