And That Will Cost You...

Today I called my insurance about a bill that I received shortly after my last miscarriage. Usually with any pregnancy I don't have a cost after the initial co-pay so I was surprized when the bill came and figured it was a mistake. While talking to the apologetic insurance customer service figure I was informed that had I had a "normal" pregnancy there would be no co-pay but because I was not able to keep the baby I have to pay a co-pay for all the services provided. I know this is stupid but it made me so mad! So what if I had miscarried 20 weeks in, would I have to pay a co-pay for each visit? I felt more like a failure this morning than I did on the day I miscarried. They said I could appeal the decision but I just don't think I have the energy right now. So congratulations to me, I just got stuck with a bill because I can conceive but can't carry.
