What a pain!!
I took my boys in to the doctor for their 2 month shot. I was told by someone in the office that at their 2 month appt., they would get the synergist shot…ok, so when I went in, they didn’t give it to us, so I asked the dr. and the nurse about it, because with our copay, it costs me $50 for each visit with the twins! Well, a couple days go by and I get a call telling me that their shot was in and I had to make an appt. to come in for it. That’s another $50 when I was told it would be done at the 2 month appt.
I called Kevin and told him what was going on and we decided that the only way we would get in would be if we didn’t have ti pay our copay or if we came in for another reason. So I called them back and left a message.
I got a call today about the shot and was told that it’s a $2000 shot and they have to get it approved by our ins. before they even order it…but we had the final say as to whether our boys get it or not, but it is something they need (which I agree with). After us telling her that we were told it was to be at our last appt., and it wasn’t, we weren’t too happy they didn’t reschedule the appt until it came in. after going round and round with the nurse (not really arguing or yelling, just explaining my end and listening to her end), she asked me if she could check a few things out and call me back, I said sure. All the while telling Kevin about what we had discussed and what was going on. She calls back and says the dr said to have us come in and they would waive our copay…then she explained to me about next year’s shots…I then told her about me being really confused since at the NICU they told me that my boys would get the shot until they were 2 years old, and the last dr I seen told me this would probably be the last time they get it. She said that at the age and weight they were that it should go until they are 2 years old. I’m guessing this dr I seen (which I wasn’t too impressed with) doesn’t have a clue! I need to make sure I get in with the same doctor each time…I’m tired of dealing with the doctors I don’t like!! Now to figure out what the doctor’s name is!! LOL
I’m so glad that we got that all figured out!! So now we go in tomorrow and the boys get their synergist shot!!
