The place I am going through charges a program fee that insurance companies don't pay for. Is that common?

My doctors office didn't charge a program fee. In fact, the doctor said that charging a program fee is unfair.

I kinda had a program fee, but it was for my Nut visits, classes and included a personal trainer. My insurance didn't cover it either.

I had to pay a nonrefundable fee... not covered by insurance. I think so if you back out they are not out anything.

I had to pay $350 non refundable fee

Guess it is a good thing that they aren't the only facility that does that

My program has a $500 fee. What it's for is all the supplies for the workshop, as well as unlimited support groups for life. There used to be a charge to attend the groups, now they have the one time program fee and that's it.

No fee here but had to sign a piece of paper stating that I would stick with there program after surgery. Like labs and stuff. Wife's bill to the hospital was 49,000 bucks glad we had insurance, but to charge a program fee that seems crazy. Cause most people still have to pay there detectable.

The good thing about mine was I paid it the first time I was in the program, and they didn't make me pay again when I restarted.

$400 is what I had to pay.

No fee here. I chose a place that gives support for life for free

Mine was 270 for after care, nutritionist work, exercise physiologist and seminars and clothing exchange. They said insurance doesn't cover it but its all after care for as long as I need it. Seemed like a good deal to me...
