No Results Yet

We are still waiting for results of the test. Apparently Dr. Gantz is in surgery so we may not hear until later this afternoon. In the mean time, Kathleen and I just made a bet. The eye drops we have to put in each hour come in 5 packs of these little plastic droppers . One dropper is used per application. I said the 5-pack would end up costing us $9 by the time all the hospital charges, taxes, and other stuff were added. She took the under. Anyone care to get in on the bet?

  1. Any time a hospital, insurance company or lawyer is involved, ALWAYS take the over! IN this case, you have 2 out of 3 - so take the WAY over!

  2. Well, I work in a hospital so I'm thinking you'll be lucky if it only costs you $9! LOL Hope you get the MRI results soon and stay strong, Kathleen. You're doing amazingly well!

  5. Jody has to agree with Kathleen on this one. Are we the only ones that read the insurance company EOB's (lol)? But you were vague in what "end up costing" means, so maybe we are all right.

    Charge to person w/no insurance: $9.00/5 pack
    Charge to person w/insurance: $46.00/5 pack
    Insurance company R&C quote back: $6.00
    Hospital "writes off": $40
    Final charge: $6.00
