I'm Freaking OUT!

[mrshill45 12]

I had my surgery on 7/6/2016 and was told at that time my out of pocket after insurance was $230. That was no problem so I paid it that day. I get a bill yesterday from the doctor for over $14,000!!!! I am completely confused and extremely stressed out because I just don't have $14K sitting around. When I looked at the EOB online it looks like the doctor charged for something that was not covered by my insurance (BCBS Anthem of GA). How would you all suggest I handle this situation? Any advise is greatly appreciated.

I called the insurance company this morning and they verified that it should have been covered. They are going to send the claim back to the adjuster because come to find out they did not pay the hospital claim of $45K either. Hopefully, everything works out or I may have to sell my house. smh They did say to give them two weeks to research.

It sounds like it will work out - It's probably an i left undotted, or a t left uncrossed! I would flip too if I got a $14K hospital bill!
