    We’ll run this test, but your insurance probably won’t cover it so here’s the bill. How would you like to pay today?

      I always hate how casual they are too. “That will be $3,526, how would you like to pay?”

      “Uhh… i wouldn’t, thanks.”

      More like “we already ran this test without telling you how expensive it would be. Your insurance didn’t cover it. Here’s your bill. And here’s a second bill for the same exact thing but this time we’ll call it ‘professional services’ instead of lab work – pay that too or we’ll send you to collections.”
