wait, what's a "facility fee" and why is it $200?!

Has anyone else been blindsided by random healthcare charges? My regular provider suddenly demanded an extra $200 "facility fee" for a 20-minute, no-touch appointment in their OUTPATIENT building! I refused to pay, called everyone I could, and ultimately switched providers. A year later, that once-busy clinic was completely repurposed. Coincidence? 🤔 How are you handling surprise medical fees? Any strategies for fighting these random charges? This billing madness has me completely lost! #MedicalBilling #FacilityFees #HealthcareCosts #PatientRights
