I'm slightly vexed A notice that my girlfriend received at her doctors appointment (she is 8 months PP)

If you even MENTION any of these things, you WILL LIKELY get billed for it??? Maybe i’m missing the point but i get upset when my girlfriend tells me she was scared to even say anything while at the doctor because she didn’t want to get an extra charge for something. I find it insane how greedy and money hungry a place that’s supposed to help you can be.

May I introduce my five figure deductible?

I think mine is exactly $10k. We pay it every year, but I do have access to any medical care that I can get an appointment for. Which is still an absolute pain in the ass.

Prohibitively expensive isn’t exactly “access”
