re: #135 electrotek
Which I was. After my surprise out-of-network visit to a cardiologist by a referral via my regular physician, I make sure I donāt make the same mistake again. I didnāt blow up on my physician since itās not her responsibility if the referral is āin-networkā or āout-of-networkā as it is mine to do so.
It sucks that I double check on everything to make sure Iām āin-networkā only for a colossal bill to occur soon.
If they do bill you at the OON percentage, call them. Thereās a pretty good chance of getting it reviewed and adjusted to the network rate.
