Affiliated Anesthesiologists (AA) are greedy. I don't know if they accept any insurance, but they did not accept ours. Our insurance paid them what they considered a fair amount, but AA demanded it be paid in full. With a lot of back and forth with the insurance, they agreed to pay in full minus our 10%...by the time that all happened we had been sent to collection! It's not right that we have to fight or possibly pay huge amounts out of pocket because they're "not in network". Most places give a discount or even just accept the fair amount paid and don't hassle you constantly about where the rest of their money is. I always thought that if the group is doing business with a participating provider (Mercy) that they have to go with the member rate...apparently not these money grubbers! Wish we would have had a choice in picking someone in our network...thanks Mercy for not looking out for us.
