mri cost

I just got a bill for the MRI that was done back in Feb, over a month ago. Apparently, the cost was about $1700. But insurance covered all but $25 of it.

It's really weird that we aren't told up-front how much a treatment will cost. I "knew" that my insurance would cover the bulk of the cost, so I didn't put any effort into finding out. I wonder if I would have gone for the MRI if I didn't have insurance, though. I'd probably have thought "I'll take the risk and skip it, I'd better save my money for a potential catastrophic incident."
