I was seen in the office on 10/23/2023 for a wellness check up including blood work. i was told that anything discussed outside of the wellness issues i would be charged for. the visit included the Nurse Practitioner reviewing my medication list and renewing my prescriptions. because i was getting my migraine medication of propranolol renewed (a preexisting condition ) I was charged an additional $52.27 (that is my charged after insurance). The procedure code they put in for was *****. This was a preexisting condition not a new diagnosis and the only remarks about it was that i was taking the propranolol and needed authorization for a refill. Nor was I told at the the time of the visit that this interaction would be considered outside the scope of a wellness visit and they would be charging me for more than a standard office visit would be. wellness visits are free standard office visit has a copay of $25 and this visit cost me an additional $52.27 This practice is trying to hide behind their statement of "you knew anything discussed outside of a standard wellness visit will be charged", but they don't tell you what a wellness visit includes. and my wellness has a preexisting condition of migraines so why wouldn't that be included and what gives them the right to charge above a standard office visit?
