In my case it was the anesthesiologist who was out of network. Looking at the bill, they looked like just another practice. When I found their phone number and address, however, it turned out that their practice was part of the hospital.
I called their number and ended up talking to someone in their office and they agreed to waive the fee. I wonder if this is part of their process: if there's pushback, waive the fee.
