Why does it happen so often that when a hospital is in network, the anesthesiologists are not and nobody tells you about it (even if you ask, they lie and assure all providers will be in network) and you only find out after they send you a bill for many many thousands of dollars?

If you look at statistics by state, some are worse than others. In Minnesota, I think it's only 3-4% chance they're out of network, while in TX it's about 90% (or something horrible like that). Obviously, it's much more profitable for them to be out of network because you can't have anything done without them, so they take advantage of people.
