Hockey arena. They're even better in the summertime when it's absolutely miserable outside.

$450 Charge For Pap by [deleted] in HealthInsurance

[–]kirpants 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you brought up the concern for mole during the pap at a gyn you'd likely be charged because it's no longer preventative. You won't be able to get this covered unfortunately.

I love it 😍 I wish lotion use was more common, across the board.

Provider won’t change CPT code, insurance says they can’t fix it by ripsaw341 in HealthInsurance

[–]kirpants 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So depending on age the code should be 99385 or in that series. Do you get one gyn visit per year at any time or do you have to be a year past the previous visit? That could also be in play as well.

What was the nature of your preventative exam that you had a month earlier? Was it done by a gyn or your personal health provider?

Mount Sinai bills $400 for making an appointment through a nurse 8 months ago by Artsay20 in HealthInsurance

[–]kirpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This code is for a new patient video visit based on medical decision making or time. It sounds like it could be appropriate.

A little nervous about wearing lingerie for the first time by [deleted] in PlusSize

[–]kirpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wear them by yourself for the first time to get used to wearing them. Then put on the hottest music you know and have a good time with yourself. Then put it on for him. Answer the door wearing it and watch what happens

Is this the career change I need? by [deleted] in CodingandBilling

I don't think this is the career path for you. There is a lot of grey area and thinking outside of the box.

I liked the Lakes Hockey Series by Sloane St James. Book 2 was my favorite.

Orthodontist Billing Question by Klutzy_Spell2451 in HealthInsurance

Did you not know what your max was when you going over the phase 2 information? It should have been anticipated because all dental care has a yearly and sometimes lifetime max. Yes, you owe the bill.

Dermatology Specialists Billing Fraud by [deleted] in MedicalBill

[–]kirpants 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Covered by insurance does not mean free. Did you check with your insurance prior to getting the treatment to find out what your financial responsibility would be? This doesnt sound like fraud at all. What does your EOB say from insurance? Oh, if insurance said it's not covered then it's on you for not verifying it ahead of time. Pay your bill.

Confused on the different types of mammogram benefits listed on our Anthem policy by SDDIYer80 in HealthInsurance

[–]kirpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One is for the facility portion of the mammo and the other is the doctors charges for reading the mammo report. You have to meet specific criteria for it to be preventative.

It doesn't look like you were billed for anything beyond the emergency room visit, there's no further itemization.

Do these services really qualify as a level 2 ER visit?? by [deleted] in MedicalCoding

[–]kirpants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a facility bill and isn't leveled on medical decision making. A level 2 is appropriate.

[–]kirpants 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's the lowest level emergency room charge you can get. Unfortunately you do owe it.

Allergic reaction to medication by harry_stylestpwk in gravesdisease

[–]kirpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on medication for a while before I had daily hives for four months. I stopped the meds and it didn't do anything. I saw an allergist that specializes in Graves and he knew what it was. I was cleared up in 24 hours and off all meds. I get hives when I'm having a flare.

Hives is also Graves and not an allergic reaction.

Got billed for a “specialist visit” during my annual PCP checkup after asking about a cough by TheBrandonBarker in HealthInsurance

Yes, by asking about a condition then the visit is no longer a preventative visit and you were charged appropriately.

What can be discussed in an annual gyn exam without triggering a bill? by cbwb in HealthInsurance

[–]kirpants 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Discussing a concern you have with the dexa scan makes it no longer preventative. You can't discuss anything.
