The Insurance Locator

How do I handle the insurance claim?

My son had a doctor visit in which he needed a nebulizer at home (Panda). No problem. Is needed, we got it. Well, being billed through my insurance. When we got home, I started googling and found the thing and, on average, cost ~ 60. Actually I thought it might be easier in around 100, so I was pretty relieved. Well, just recently received the statement from the company care that provides my office with these medical nebulizers. He charged my insurance company over $ 400 for this and my insurance does not cover everything that I now have to pay $ 150. I am shocked! Is it insurance fraud? I do not mind paying a bit for her, b / c I needed, but heck, knowing how much they are, just makes me mad! What should I do?

http://www.semedicalsupply.com/mq-6003.htm was curious myself and not Google search and found this from this site for $ 49.95. In the medical bill received, "the manufacturers information to Google if they sell or the company that sold the doctor? As a general rule, the insurance company has a contract price (discount) that is usually lower than the average person pays, so I was hoping to find ie at a price of about $ 600 and found the evil that is much lower. So if I get this right, that insurance charge of $ 400, but the contract price was $ 150 and you will not pay, you will pay $ 150? If this is the case, I'd be crazy too. The question is? Are they selling to physicians a higher profit margin, too? Granted if you told yourself you would have to pay shipping / handling, but not for addtl cost $ 100. In addition, this bill also could be for your doctor visit was included for other services to a total of $ 150 due. Or simply pay per physician visit separately? l You may want to get on the phone with this site and ask them what they charge insurance companies or the a 2nd opinion. When my husband and I had surgery rotator bill, which had a special pump that gave for recovery. I looked online and saw that ran around $ 60 and that is what was charged on our bill. This pump was remarkable and I was surprised by the low cost. Good luck
