| Ep. 73: Why Did My GYN Visit Cost So Much? | 30 juin 2026 | 00:08:56 | |
Ever looked at your OB-GYN bill and thought, How did it cost that much? Or wondered why your friend paid something completely different for what seemed like the exact same visit? You’re not alone—and the answer is probably more complicated than you think. In this episode of For Vaginas Only, Dr. Charlsie Celestine pulls back the curtain on how gynecology visits are billed and why the amount you owe can vary from patient to patient. She explains the difference between preventive and problem-focused visits, what really happens when you bring up a new concern during your annual exam, and how copays, deductibles, coinsurance, and your insurance plan all play a role in the final bill. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why “the same visit” isn’t always the same—and you’ll be better equipped to navigate your healthcare costs with confidence. If you’ve ever been caught off guard by a medical bill, this episode is for you.
