Damn near was going to cost me at least 2 thousand dollars round about numbers to get an arthrogram mri on my should to see if something is torn or whatever. That wouldn't even freaking go to fixing said possible problem. Absolutely ridiculous.
Anyone else with similar experiences with tore rotators etc of possibly what i'm dealing with. I've had a should pain for 10 months now, no better no worse really. inflamed pain right in the front of my joint area.

can you imagine paying this and then get some half arse answer/explanation of some possible minor tear or not very clear on the problem STILL. I would probably murder someone.

10 months wow. Maybe start saving money and in another 10 months when it's about to fall off, you'll have the $2k to get it looked at.

That seems awfully high.
Is your insurance not covering any of it?

gotta meet my deductible, then there's seperate expenses not covered on top of 35% of remaining cost plus all these radiologist expenses and shite that's billed completed seperate. I may not have the bestest policy but its not a horrible policy either. Humana through work.
The entire procedure was over 5k or some crap and probably not including the radiologist shite.

Who is your insurance company? That sounds wrong.

is this because the doctor isn't on your providers list?

Can you not set up a payment plan?

i have problems in the same spot, but only when throwing a ball. I can lift weight over my head, sleep normally, just about anything else with zero pain.

I had a buddy that worked in a hospital scan me for free to see my tear
I never fixed it though

Here is the deal. You now pay everything up to your deductible before insurance pays except for wellness visits. Prescriptions and procedures are on you until you hit that number.
I have a $3000 deductible. My diabetes medications were over $700 a month until I met my deductible. Now I don't pay a cent.
