My doctor put in an order for me to have a few tests to check if there is a larger issue. The cost of the tests with my insurance are around 800. I found that I could do a cash option and get billed around 350 (so a pretty big savings). I have a high deductible plan, and I understand if they found something and I paid cash it would not count towards a deductible. On the other hand, the doctor did not think this was anything to be concerned about (and wants me to check to be sure).
Are there any other negatives to using cash (ex. if they found something could they question or not pay for future issues, will they give an issue going to a new provider, etc).
