Are private practice doctors cheaper than hospital doctors?  

Are private practice doctors cheaper than hospital doctors?  

answers 0:Cost-wise, who should I see?answers 1:Get estimates because sometimes private doctors will screw you overanswers 2:I do have insurance and I just want a dermatologist to check my skin.By hospital doctor, I mean making an appointment with one, not the emergency room.answers 3:1answers 4:Hi Lumpy, a private practice doctor usually requires some type of insurance, if not, they will tend to be higher cost wise. Not sure what you mean by a hospital doctor? Maybe you are talking about going to a hospital to see one, yet normally you would have to go through ER to do so. This case wil be a lot more than a private doctor w/no insurance (Not sure if that is what you meant by hospital doctor?).So, if you have no insurance, go online and look for urgent care clinics in your area. Call and ! ask what their fee is to see a doctor. They do not require insurance, and will see you same day/no appointment. They usually range between $50.00 and up for an exam (Not including any tests/prescription meds., etc.).If you have no insurance, no money, and need to see a doctor, go to your local county medical facility. Last resort, call 211 from any phone (Home/cell), and thy will help you find a low cost/no cost doctor/dentist, etc. very nice people (You will actually talk to a human), that will just ask where you are, and tell you the closest place to go. Could be in the next nearest city, but they will help.Good luck, and take care!N.B. In no way was I assuming you have no money or insurance, just wanted to cover all bases for you....
