My wife recently received an Outpatient back procedure that was around an 1 hr long, it was for injections in her back. We had to go to the hospital because they had to do some slight sedation. We received the CPT and diagnostic code we then called the insurance and it did not have to be preapproved. The Hospital and the Doctor who ordered it did as well. When the Hospital billed the insurance they used different codes and somehow a procedure that is usually billed around $4000 was billed at above $40,000, and the insurance is saying it has to be preapproved because they are using different codes. I have called the hospital and the insurance and have been given the run around. I am not sure what my rights are in this type of situation
