The patient is given a quote for a crown total of $900.00.
The patient paid the deductible and her quoted portion of $450.00 up front. When the patient received an EOB from the insurance $1600.00 had been charged to the insurance for the same crown. When questioning the amount, the office manager stated that he can charge any amount he wants to the insurance company. The doctor stated that the billing is out of her hands. The insurance company states that the patient should not have gone out of network and it is out of their hands. IS THIS LEGAL? OR THIS INSURANCE FRAUD?
Not only was the bill to insurance excessive but it also used up $700.00 more of the patients yearly maximum than originally quoted which means she will not be able to complete other dental treatment needed.
