We thought the same thing, this is like a 4 star hotel! Yep, and the bill reflected it. Like most Americans, our insurance has a high deductible, and this facility is considered ""emergency"" not 'clinic' so NONE of it was covered. Our son had an ear infection. We spent 15 minutes there. The Doctor looked in his ear. He wrote a prescription. Not one band-aid was used. The bill? $872.85. THAT, my friends is what is wrong with our current health care system. I called to complain about this ridiculous cost, and she said, 'How much do you think you can pay"" I said, I realize it is not regular business hours so we will pay $200. She said fine. I paid the $200. I continued to get billed for the remaining balance. Fearing this would jeapordize my credit rating, I paid the rest. I would like to be reimbursed for the remaining balance that I grossly OVERPAID. No response from the billing department yet. If I get reimbursed, I will happily adjust this rating to a 5 star.
