OK, appointments all done so now I get a message and an alert that I have 2 new estimates. Now having estimates at all is new to me but what the heck, I'll play. It says "You have 2 new estimates. Review them now" so I click that expecting to review 2 new estimates. But no... it says "Loading Request an estimate" and takes me to a screen to "Create a new estimate" like this whole thing was my idea.
When I was developing and an application made you say - "What the...?" - that was considered a bad thing.

The estimate is basically amounts before it goes through you insurance and not the amount you are responsible to pay. If you send Billing a question or call them you will get a better explanation than I can give.

My husband keeps tabs on what goes through our insurance. I need to relearn .. I used to do it. I think it needs to be a joint effort now. We each have our days of “it is Greek to me”. I tell him sometimes “ it is gobbly gook to me” 😁
