Hospital-Non Emergency X-Ray and blood test bill

This is from earlier in the month, just saw it today. I live in Massachusetts btw. Definitely not listening to anyone when they say I should go to a hospital for simple things like this. My urgent care actually said they couldn’t do an x-ray, yet they have more than one. Makes me feel manipulated. My autism could have got in the way of seeing the right path. Do you think its too high? Should my insurance covered more?

It's the beginning of the year. Your deductible most likely restarted at the beginning of the year. So until you meet your deductible, certain services are 100% patient responsibility. It sucks. It truly does. American Healthcare is ridiculously expensive. There may have been cheaper options in your area. Get in touch with your insurance or go on their site and see what the options are around you. Most health facilities have apps now that will be able to give you estimates of what your costs will be for XYZ service.
