Two 13yearolds are facing arson and manslaughter charges in connection with that fire. There were tears in oakland today. A strong and emotional show of support for the police chief who was recently fired. [ applause ] we love you, chief you can see it. You can hear it. Hundreds of opd officers lined up outside Union Headquarters to hug their now former boss. The Police Commission fired Anne Kirkpatrick last week without cause. Kirkpatrick cried as they broke out in applause and thanked her for her three years of leadership. Some say the mood is somber at Oakland Police department. People are thinking of leaving. I know plenty of people have mentioned about looking for other places because there have been a lot of negative things one after another, and this was a significant one. Because she was fired without cause, kirkpatrick is entitled to a full year of salary and benefits if she does not distei best deal. But would you do it for an x ray orge docr ordered . A bay area mom says shes come up with a way to help you do exactly that. Consumer investigator chris chmura is here to explain. You normally dont think youre going to shop around for an x ray. You think its going to be the same at every hospital. Absolutely not. I think were going to change peoples thinking tonight, specifically because a lot of families have that High Deductible Health insurance. 43 according to the cdc. That means youve got to spend lots of money out of pocket before your insurance kicks in and pays even one penny. If thats you, you might be able to save some cash by leaving your insurance card in your wallet. An unexpectedly high hospital bill gave Joanne Rodriguez craig sticker shock. We got an 800 bill nfor thi flu test, and i had called into the hospital and they told me if you had paid cash, it would have been 30 less. She had no idea she could have paid less. She was frustrated but also motivated to spread the word to others. Joanne used her background as a Data Scientist to create a website called clinic price check. It lets you search prices from patients bills, hospitals and the government. If you shop around, its possible that you can get a much better rate than what your insurer is offering you, especially if you consider paying cash. Reporter can you really just side step your Health Insurance if you find a lower price . The California Department of managed health care tells us, yes, you can. But a rep for the California Hospital Association says while a hospital could technically agree to provide a patient with a socalled cash price for a service, that just doesnt happen very often. In my experience, it happens a lot and i Lisa Barry Blackstock is a private patient advocate. She helps people navigate and negotiate billing disputes. Lisa recommends that anyone scheduling medical care should check the cash price, particularly if you have a high deductible with your Health Insurance. All you have to do is ask. Who may i speak with who i can explore may cash pay options with . Theyll know exactly what youre talking about. They will not deny it. They wont discourage it. Reporter the Hospital Association tells us hospitals are required to give you a goodfaith estimate. Some hospitals have even posted price calculators on their websites. So we used one for a Large Hospital Group here in the bay area. It took a little digging and several clicks but eventually we found dozens of procedures where the average cash price was 10 less than the price insurance had negotiated. A cardiac stress test was 307 less if you pay yourself. A lower back mri was 168 cheaper without insurance. But its important to remember that if you bypass your Health Insurance, you wont be chipping away at your annual deductible, which could come back to bite you later. So before you decide whether to use your insurance, weigh your medical expenses for the entire year. I want people to shop for health care, and i want people to save money. Reporter as for joanne, shee check drives change in medical billing. I want to get rid of price discrimination. I want everybody to be able to pay the same rates. Reporter everyone we spoke with for this story said it is essential that you do your Price Research before you have a procedure done. That means talking with your insurance and the hospital well in advance, and ideally get all their commitments in writing. I want everything in writing. Yeah. So it is a little labor in helps you. Like anything else, you got to do some work to get some money. Theres some savings there. Opened a lot of eyes with na story. Better believe thats what ill be doing in the future.

Jeff ranieri is with us now. I definitely think this weekend were going to be in for a stark contrast. The record setting heat weve been used to is certainly going to be fading. Lets bring you into that microclimate forecast. I know we all felt it today. As you were out driving around looking down at the thermometer in your car, it felt more like april, early may than february here with 78 in concord. San jose 76. Even San Francisco getting in on the action with 71 degrees. Its all from this area of High Pressure weve been telling you about. Its helping to pull in warmer air from the south and this is also ridging. This ridge of High Pressure is ridging the storm track well off to the north, keeping that rainfall away. I do think two more days of this before we get some bigtime changes moving on in. Lets get you ready to go for your wednesday morning forecast, and well start off mostly sunny. Lots of 40s here. 44 in the trivalley. Peninsula at 49. South bay at 47. Not overly cold in the east bay. A little bit of a chill at 46 degrees. A fantastic start in the north bay at 44 degrees.

Right here for the east bay, feeling some of that warmth over oakland, hayward, down to fremont with low to mid70s. East bay hills some of this heat gets trapped back leer. Upper 70s in antioch, pittsburg, back to danville. For the peninsula, notice a difference here. Palo alto, 77. Then a slight ocean breeze, it will be cooler down to 68 in daly city. San francisco, i have a little warmth here from the embarcadero down to the mission. And for the north bay, 78 in napa and 75 in mill valley. Okay. About this time of the week were checking our watches, looking at our calendars. Already thinking about the weekend. I want you to be ready for this change moving in saturday and sunday. Were going to see that heat weve been tracking move off towards the west. Thats going to allow this colder and windy system to move in with even a slight chance of a spotty shower. So look at the difference in San Francisco. If youre not near the tv, youve got to come to the tv to see this. 72 on thursday down to 54 on sunday. 50 chance of a spotty shower.

Most of the production of the new iphones happens over the summer, but the beginning of the year is critical for apple to nail down manufacturing plans with chinese factories.
