Lisa: Ask them to amortize it over 3 years as that's what your  
payment is for.
I remember $200.00 also. Remember almost everyone else who needs this  
number (except us APCs) are in their own practices where this is just  
another cost of doing business. MAybe we get to finance those border  
raids for drugs, or maybe we pay so they can investigate the docs who  
are always getting arrested for giving out too many Oxycontins?? I am  
so bad sometimes.
