Tell us about the worst teeth you ever dealt with. LoL
I'm guessing you either used up some or all of your yearly benefits which makes your out of pocket higher or they really padded that bill.Congrats on the new practice & sponsorship to TGT.
I just had #19 molar removed & with 80/20 Insurance it still cost me $1k. 4 wisdom for 1k sounds pretty good to me.
I have my HR looking into the over charge & should be getting some cash back.
Did you have radiation therapy (XRT) to the face/neck? I have helped plenty of people who had XRT & were turned away by others. It just requires a good discussion about risks & benefits.Been dragging my feet on getting what's left of my teeth pulled and getting dentures, because I have to get a paper filled out and sent to the oral surgeon.
I already know they are not going to reccommend me for surgery from the radiologist that form has to be filled out by. Hell, they had less radiation leak from Chernobyl than they used on me.
I'm kinda screwed. I don't know what to do. But, good luck with your new venture in my old hometown. Spend some time on the river.
Oh, and take the kids to Sea World. When Shamu comes out, your neck hairs will stand on end.
Even really bad teeth aren't all that special. It's the other stuff that gets crazy. I'm just leaving the hospital. I have better pictures of random stuff at home but here's one I saw recently.Tell us about the worst teeth you ever dealt with. LoL
Were you sedated? Did they do a bone graft? Were they in-netwok w/ your insurance company?
$1k is nuts.
Frequently sedation isn't covered unless there are at least 2 or 3 teeth.We just switched insurance companies, so no benefits were used up. My new Insurance supposedly has no network restrictions. I got the most expensive best coverage plan they offered.
Yes to all 3, sedation, bone graft & in network.
They tried to tell me my sedation wasn't coverd because it was only 1 tooth & not multiple. Hopefully HR gets it figured out.
This is how you look when you realize you've just badmouthed a guy carrying a 1911:
The jams frighten me.....until he realizes it jammed.
What are these jams you talk about? Maybe Hi point shouldn't be your mark of excellence.....until he realizes it jammed.
