"Ask for an itemized bill, that will cut the cost in half".

How are the hospitals not getting sued for this alone?

    Wait, for real? Do they normally just give you a general cost and not specifying what makes it up? Non-american here

    Imagine being forced to pay for privatised hospitals. This post was made by the EU-Gang. 🇪🇺

    Oh it gets more fun, because if you have to go by ambulance like I did, you get a bill from the ambulance company. The one I had tried to quadruple charge me and had to be told multiple times that the bill was paid, they can't keep making up new charges because "we forgot one thing" or "rates changed".

    Luckily it was all worker's compensation, so I didn't pay a cent, but it was a rather interesting 6 months.

    I got an ambulance bill despite not even being in the same state as the ride.

    They said they couldn't do anything unless I could tell them who actually did get the ride, which obviously I have no idea. Ultimately insurance got rid of them, but it was looking pretty hopelessly aggravating.
