Yes, I would like to keep my appointment

And the conversation went like this…

"So you still take my insurance, but I have the wrong three letters at the beginning of my ID number, so now you're out of my network? And what this means to me is that if in the last 5 weeks I have already spent $9000 and met my deductible, I only have to pay you 40% instead of 60% of my visit? Thank you for letting me know.

Yes I will still keep my appointment and pay cash as usual since I have not spent $9000 on healthcare in the first five weeks of 2016 and Blue Cross isn't going to pay you anything either way."
