Does $185 Sound About Right?

Can't find a local psychologist who accepts my insurance, so I scheduled an appointment as self-pay for my psych eval. I have nothing to compare this price to, so I was hoping if any of you knew if this was a fair price?

Where do you live? I think mine billed the insurance for $150, and I had to pay an extra $65 out of pocket for her to write the report for the bariatric surgeron, so that's probably a fair price. I saw a doctor in Columbia MD which is about 40 mins north of DC.

I don't really have any answer but I do have a suggestion. Could you ask if they have a self pay price? My dentist will give a 20% off self pay price if you pay by credit card at time of service.

My insurance was billed $578 bucks for that 30 minute appointment. Out of pocket I paid $20 bucks.

I paid $200 cash insurance didn't cover it

[m1aman 944]

My insurance was billed $125 for 15 minutes. Cost to me was $0

[running_scared 125]

$578?!?!?!

Holy cow!

[litl1997 14]

I didnt pay nothing. Insurance covered it

[aliciab 8]

I think mine was just over $200 so $185 sounds about right.

I live a bit north of you, in southeast PA. The thought that there would be a separate charge to write out the report didn't even cross my mind!!!
