I went for a consult with Dr. Waits a few months ago....

my insurance denied coverage but am getting new insurance in January so I called them today to see if I can get back in the process but was told that starting in January they are charging a $4500 program fee!! I asked the nurse if that was legal and she was pretty defensive stating that they were only making $1200 per surgery with insurance paying and they have to do this to make ends meet! She said other docs in Atlanta are doing the same! Anybody out there had experience with this? I find it unbelieveable! She said insurance will NOT cover this. I hope this is not going to happen with all the practices. Pam
