Kinda reminds me of the experience I'm currently going through with my optical doc. We had an agreement on how much my exam and glasses would cost, which I paid. But, during the exam, he said that the pressure in my eyes seems a bit high and would like to do some more tests. He asked me if I'd be willing to pay an extra $35 for the eye drops to have the tests done? I agreed. The tests were the ones where they check for blind spots in each eye. 3 months later, I get a bill for $300 more, because the insurance company refused to pay for these extra tests.
So, this just leaves me angry with the doctor. He should of been truthful with me up front about the extra cost. I don't feel I should have to pay for it, but if he turns it into the collectors, it'll leave another bad mark on my already not-so-good credit rating.
Edit: Does the word shyster come to mind?
