Do you mean that your DOctor lied to the insurance company and said that there was a reason for a targeted US just so that they would pay for it? There go your insurance premiums up again. A targeted US costs about 3 times as much as a routine US and should take about 2-3 times as long and it should be "Targeted" at a specific system of the fetus(Brain, Heart, Kidneys whichever one is neeeded.)

You should ask your DOctor this question.
