Quest Diagnostics - Price Gouging
My OB/GYN submitted some culture tests to test for infection, and Quest Diagnostics charged over $1200 for these tests. After the insurance processed it, the bill to me was $313.
I showed this to my doctor and he was shocked. He said he's seen them doing something lately where they are separating parts of the test out to be able to charge for more things. I am totally pissed because these routine and simple tests are not worth even $313 (and they all came back negative).
I tried complaining to my insurance company, not sure if they will be able to do anything about it.
I wanted to report them to the Better Business Bureau, but they don't take complaints about prices, however this seems odd if this is something that is a lousy business practice. They can just get away with it because there is not much competition.
Reason of review: Pricing issue.
