Wow, I hadn't checked back in a few days. Thanks for all the great posts. And now, for the update: I did ask the office about my bill and showed them the insurance statement. It actually confused them for a moment, but then she pulled up my account history and was able to find out why. Turns out that one lab was for my Pap test and the other was for my bloodwork. In addition, although my regular pregnancy visit was covered by one co-pay (which I've already paid), my insurance company required the doctor's office to take a separate co-pay for performing the Pap - hence the three co-pays. The lady I spoke with said it was strange that my insurance company required a separate co-pay, but that she had had issues with them in the past. Anyway, I feel better knowing the cause. I took a few minutes to chat with her about the office co-pays I should expect, which basically are none unless I have any complications, come into the office for non-preg. related concerns, etc. So at least that was good news!
