if your pedi put silvadene on LO's UC stump

zubenescamali · March 2012

LO's cord stump fell off pretty early and it was still a little gooey in there, so our pediatrician put some silvadene on it to dry it up. well i just got the bill and they are charging me $55.00! seems excessive, being that you can buy a pound jar of the stuff for far less than that and the doc only did a quick swipe with a q-tip. and doesn't seem like insurance picked up any of it (from the EOB)

so, how much did you get charged for this intervention?
