Read HIPAA when you get the chance; Specifically how to calculate cost.
Everyone who talks to the patient, who touches them, and who is consulted by the doctor, gets to charge. Yup, that means if another doctor happens to walk by, and confirms what he just told me, he gets to charge me again (double).
Feels like theatre every time I go to the doctor, so I just tell the secretary "I'm talking to you and Doc, no one else", and just quietly stare at anyone else who pops in.
Usually insurance covers this stuff, but I was uninsured when I discovered it .
