I just opened two bills that arrived. Both for for my daughter's visit to urgent care and mine.
They told us that we had a $30.00 co-pay. We paid $30.00 each. However, later I found out we didn't, but my doctor said they may just bill us differently.
Well...they were completely off on our co-pay. We do not, they just billed us for another $60.00 per person, making the visits $90.00 per person. Ugh....never trust what your physicians or doctors or hospitals say....always call your insurance, even if you have to stay on hold for an hour.
Well, this just stinks. I guess we get a $30.00 visit only if we go to a specific urgent care and not the family doctor. I finally got the details, and no we don't have a $30 co-pay. Not sure why that person told us that.
I have a $600.00 deductible for myself, and the doctor charges $102 just to see her.
I guess I will be praying harder that this lymph node returns to normal, and quickly too. 
The lymph node is still swollen, which means calling the doctor back. However, I cannot until hubby has time to sign in and check our insurance. I tried calling, but I get nothing but machines. Even though the urgent care told us we have a $30.00 co-pay, my doctor is telling me we don't. So I sit and wait. Otherwise, I can't call the doctor, due to the cost.
Update: The doctor is now treating it as an infection, and if it's still swollen in 2 weeks from yesterday, they will biopsy. Thank you for your prayers.
I have a doctor appt. on Monday of next week. I'll find out the results of what they think is going on with the lymph node in the back of my neck. Please keep me in you prayers. I am praying it's from chronic fatique or allergies, and that I can rid myself of it soon.

I sure hope it is only and infection that they can figure out. Did they give you a good antibiotic for it...How are you feeling anyway?
I hope you can find out if your daughter will come to the Thanksgiving Dinner at your mothers, I will pray for that.
Take care and go have some tea and a good cup of chicken noodle soup.
Blessings to you
love
darlene

Praying for your health and well being. When it comes to insurance, things sure can get messy and become a real pain in the rump!
More importantly is your health, so do take care of yourself!
Hugs to you,

Kristina,
I am praying that the swelling will disappear, and that the doctor won't be costly and that you won't have a co-pay. Prayers for your family too.
take care ok.
love

SOrry to hear that the update is not good news. I think there really is something to be said for Eurpoean Countries and their socialized medicine. It seems to work so well over there. Here in the states, I only hear of problems when it comes to medical bills/insurance etc.
Praying that the lymph node goes down on its own.
Take care of yourself Kristina!
Hugs,
~Laurie
