I called and made an appointment for treatment for ingrown hairs. My primary care physician made a referral for folliculitis.
I took off a half day from work, paid a $30 copay, Blue Cross paid $99 of a $200 bill from the doctor. The treatment after a one hour wait? "There's nothing I can do for that condition."
The doctor never touched or looked at me....only at my file. He is in business to rip off insurance companies and patients.
