They told me to try the hospital I went to before but my pdoc wants this hospital. Plus I hate that other hospital. Also the quote the lady gave me was for an average stay of 18 days. 18 days!!! I better not be there for 18 days.

I told them to proceed because they said I can always back out up to the last minute. So now I am just waiting for my pdoc to send my clinical info and a bed to be available.

Damn this is all so frustrating. How do people deal with this?


Very frustrating. I can relate.
My 6-day stay in a psychiatric ward with insurance ran about $3600... 18 days is a long time. I hope that is not necessary. Can your PDoc be more flexible?
