Screening mammogram

There was a discount for the "member rate" so the insurance paid $43.38 and the balance was "discounted". I did not have to pay out of pocket... for this code.

This was a follow up 3-D mammogram after initial mammogram showed dense breast tissue. The first mammogram was covered at almost 100% ( 2 charges of $.01 for perf measurements were not covered ? On initial preventative mammogram). I had to pay $199.98 towards $200 deductible and $5.95 for Co - insurance? I thought as part of a well checkup the entire amount would be covered.

First mammogram found something and I was told to get a 3D digital ultra-lateral plus ultrasound. Had to paid money upfront or couldn’t get procedure done. I also thought it was covered. I can see where many women would not get this done if they do not have the funds. So much for preventive screening and early cancer detection!

I had not gone in several years because I don’t like it and it is expensive. I am 52. I figured I should suck it up and go. I HOPE that I don’t get a notice in the future that I have to pay because of a copay or some deductibles that I haven’t met.

On 4-18-18, I went for my annual mammogram. Amount billed was $567.00 but the member rate was 396.90 which my insurance paid in full. I was contacted by the facility that "my pictures were not clear", and I needed to have tests done over. On 5-2-18, I returned for my mammogram. I was billed for $556.50. I did protest this with the insurance company and was denied. They said it was not considered routine. I even went back to the facility and asked why I was told the "pictures were not clear" and made to believe that I was still having my annual tests redone? I was told, " we don't like to worry anyone unnecessarily. I did end up paying not only $556.50, but also $116.72 for the ultrasound.

I went for my yearly mamamogram and was called back a few days later, with the hospital saying the test was incomplete. I needed to come back for a second test. They did an ultra sound on left breast. I received bill for 633.00 i called insurance company, hospital, and Doctor. At this time I have not paid this bill.

I had initial 3D mammogram on 5/8/19. I have dense breast tissue and therefore my Dr recommend a 3D mammogram. I have ALWAYS been called back for additional views in the past and have not been charged. I got a call back on the 9th of May letting me know that I needed an additional view. Additional view was taken on 5/10 and that is when these charges occurred.

To my surprise I was billed for a mammogram and then a Sonogram due to dense breast. I thought this was a free service . It’s a preventive procedure. You could amaze I was shocked when I received this bill.

Have not paid my portion yet, it was gone to collections. I just don't have the funds. They want me to have it done again in January and July. Every 6 months for a year and a half. I will not be able to do this.
