OT - Food allergy testing - rant

[Guest guest]

I spent alot of time calling insurance, getting codes, calling

doctors, etc to get a friggin food allergy test - from ALCAT lab.

They have a price on their website of $385.00 But they require 20%

down (they quoted me $110 ??)regardless if your insurance will pay.

They say they'll refund it if the insurance pays the whole thing.

Also, the price becomes $480 or something close to that if you order

it through insurance because the website is a prepay price (???) There

are no disclaimers or conditions on this price on the website.

After haggling with the sales manager - he told me they didn't want

my business and hung up on me.

Nice company.
