I just got my bill for a skin biopsy taken to determine peripheral neuropathy. I was astounded! The full amount was $2,816. My share in that is $533.02. I'm not sure if it cost more because I have insurance, or if this is what it would cost anyone without insurance.

Bone marrow test for myeloma monoclonal cells totaled $3677 before insurance discounts (not insurance payments - our insurance doesn't pay anything). Insurance negotiated discount was 1934. So total was $1734.

Included was:

BLD Smear Periphrl 53

Bone Marrow Smear 149

Flow Cymetry, Cell 89

Each Additional MA 1656

16 or more markers 166

Surgical Pathology 348

Decalcification PR 33

Spec Stains; group 456

Immunocytochemistr 471

TISS Cult Neoplasm 350

Chromo Analy; ct1 400

This does not include doctor fee of around $350. How we are supposed to know if all of this was necessary to tell what percent monoclonal cells you have in your bone marrow, I don't know.
