My OB just sent me a copy of the bill for my a/s - it was $1100! Of course it was for two babies, but OMG. They listed the cost per baby and the 2nd baby was cheaper - ha! Insurance covers everything, but I'm just still surprised.

Re: u/s bill - sticker shock!
It's kinda crazy how much they bill insurance companies and then the rates get so negotiated down. My OB's cash price for ultrasounds is $360 for twins. My MFM charges $650 per visit and includes a level II ultrasound.
Thankfully my MFM has a package fee of $2500 which covers unlimited appointments and ultrasounds.
My OB charges a package fee of $2500 for her appointments and delivery, but it does not include ultrasounds.
When you pay OOP, it can really add up.
