Insurance plan fun

So… I had my ultrasound scheduled for Thursday at 1:45pm at Dr. B's office.  Well they called me this morning to go over the charges with me.  They had discussed with my insurance company, and my dedictible applies, so my responsibility was going to be something like $307.  My deductible is $300 so at first I thought, ok, well whatever.  But then I was thinking about it and that suddenly seemed really high given that at Dr. H's office my ultrasound bills have normally been for like $136 or something like that.  So then I thought, hmmm, maybe I can ask Dr. H to order an ultrasound, and it would be cheaper, and maybe they could even get me in SOONER!  Well, I got my wish…sort of.  Unfortunately I still have to wait until Thursday!  But now it's at 9:30am instead of 1:45pm, which is better anyway because now Eric won't have to be late for work :)  And I won't have to stress about it all morning.  I just won't be able to sleep all night on Wednesday.  OMG I can't wait!  I’m counting down the hours now… 67ish?  And I'm glad I possibly have saved over $150!  That's like, what, 4 boxes of diapers almost? ;)
