Breast cancer, double matectomy: Insurance first denies any coverage for the second breast, claiming it was a duplicate bill. Surgeon has to submit to insurance four times before any coverage, meanwhile, insurance co. Sends us the bill for entire procedure. Called a rep directly and was told They did research 'other doctors in our region' and found our surgeon was overcharging so thy were denying the 80%, but would cover 20%.  I asked (wrote all leggies, gov, congressman, senator, medical board. Only reply was a phone call from Begich, thank you!) why I didnt have a menu list to choose from, another hospital in my region or even had a choice of surgeons because the other one of the two was on vacation and cancer would have spread rapidly by that time. We were not given an estimate. Hell, I never even saw the tumor. Joke was on us when tumor reappeared in armpit three years later.  No refund after surgeon says,' whoops, guess we missed it!'  after chemo almost killed us. Shit.
