Sleep study charged my insurance SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS

[MommyTawnie 3]

I don't know how much was charged to insurance because of my 2 sleep studies. I just know that I got a bill for $40 a visit so $80 total. It is rediculous how much a simple procedure like sleeping under a camera can cost. My husband had back surgery November of 09 and we recieved a bill in March 10 for $129, 000 kid you not. Of course we didn't have to pay that amount "surgery was covered at 100%" We called insurance and they got it taken care of.. Our total cost for a $129, 000 procedure was $40 and that was because he had blood work drawn at the hospital which fell under a doctors visit not part of the procedure. Call insurance and let them know about the bill you recieved they should take care of it right then..
