I would strongly recommend appealing these to the insurance company. I get $500 bills for preventive labs, and I've paid them out of pocket before. This year I finally just appealed one. They came back and said, oops, it should be $0. I am certain that they do this on purpose. Note that my insurer is a "nonprofit" that only covers government employees, and yet they inexplicably own the naming rights to the Kansas City Chiefs' football field.I went in for my ACA sanctioned yearly physical. I am perfectly healthy but hey... if it's covered... why not? The doc told me to go across the hall to get some blood drawn. He called me the next day to tell me the results were good. A month later I got a bill for a $50 lab. Can I afford $50?? Sure. Do I feel duped by the health system. Yes.
