The Cost of a Broken Foot
Jun. 4th, 2006 10:45 amAn ER visit:
Billed: $998.75
Insurance Company Negotiate Cost: $529.34
Insurance Paid: $305.26
My Copay: $133.90
My Deductable: $90.18
Total Outlay from me (Copay+Deductable): $224.08
This doesn't include the ER doctor's bill:
Billed: $198.00
Insurance Company Negotiated Cost: $108.82
My Deductable: $108.82
Insurance paid: $0
My outlay: $108.82
Nor does it include the boot and crutches:
Billed: $88.93
Ins. Neg. Cost: $51.00
My Deductable: $51.00
Insurance paid: $0
My outlay: $51.00
And of course there was an X-Ray:
Billed: $32
Negotiated: $16.15
Copay: $1.61
(Deductable had been met)
Insurance Paid: $14.54
And shortly after the visit I had to go to an OrthoSurgeon to analyse the x-ray:
Billed: $190.00
Negotiated: $99.84
(Deductable Met)
Insurance paid: $89.84
Copayment: $10.00
I still haven't gotten the ER bill, and there is another Follow-up and X-ray with the ortho, and one more a month from now.
Edit: Forgot all about the $213.31 to rent a car for a week.
