Hi Dawn,
I work for a very large healthcare system and just wanted to respond to your question.
I see this everyday and just wanted to let you know that first you need to contact your insurance company to obtain your benefits. Ask them if they cover outpatient services. Some people think that just because they have insurance they are covered. Not all plans are the same and not all services are covered at times. Second, depending if they do cover outpatient then the percentage the insurance does not cover, if there is a percentage (80/20, 70/20, etc.) that is the percentage that is billed out to you.
If you do not have insurance and are just a self pay patient, the amount that we charge for our patients is around $75.00. This amount is a discounted amount that we offer to all self pay patients and is expected to be paid upfront since it's discounted. I hope this was helpful to you. Good luck!

BCBS and it was paid in full by the insurance. if they don't for you call them up and ask to be appointed a case manager. you shouldn't have to pay for it.

I'm pretty sure we ended up paying between $100-$200 after insurance went through. I just had him in January, and this is with BCBS insurance.

We have BCBS and it was covered at 100%. He even had to have a second one and it was also covered at 100%. We did pay a $250 copay for my hospital stay so maybe that was part of it?
