Hello!

What are the average cost for a screening mammogram?
I was referred to and out of network facility and I went and got the service done (my fault for not checking network status) and got billed $1600. Is this the average cost for mammogram or significantly lower?

Edit: I decided I will try to negotiate the price, as most of you suggested. Any idea how much the cash price for this?

Help! I need to know if there’s a solution to my problem.

I was referred by my doctor to a facility for a mammogram, and unknowingly it was out of network, I proceeded to get the mammogram done. Now the claim was denied. I’m wondering if I could appeal this just because I relied on good faith I was referred to this by my provider.

This is supposed to be a $0 service, and turned to be $1600 bill so I’m frustrated.

Can anyone explain to me these numbers? This is only for my annual physical, routine labs, mammogram, and pap smear. I thought those tests were preventative and supposed to be covered since they’re preventative exams.
