The Hospital gave me 15% off if I gave them a credit card
right on the phone. I called the Anesthesiologist’s office and they were good
with offering me 15% off as well. The Surgeon’s office would only go 10% off.
Total saved was close to $500.00!
I never before thought about asking health care providers
for a discount. I have insurance but there still is a personal responsibility
that I now know is negotiable.
With my new knowledge on negotiating discounts, I have also
negotiated a better price from our Cable provider and our Phone service
provider. I have found small proprietors are more apt to give a bigger discount
with cash. The credit card processing fees add up. I bought a carpet shampooer
and they were happy to wheel and deal for a cash price.

When new customers to our company call and ask for a
discount, I give it to them. I have learned all one has to do is ‘ask’. At a
recent trade show, I gave a bigger discount for cash purchases.
I have not negotiated in a restaurant. I don’t know how that
would work. I would love to hear if some one has negotiated a discount on their
meal.

Good for you, Haralee. I didn't know about discounts in healthcare until I went for my certificate in patient advocacy and they taught us. They said negotiate, negotiate, negotiate!
That's why Cathy you are a great patient advocate, you are in the know on so many issues!
Congratulations, you are a master negotiator for asking all of those discounts from different groups in the hospital.
I did not even know you can request for that in the hospital! Thank you for the wonderful info!
