I just got one of the preliminary bills for 1 and a half days worth of hospital crap before insurance ….. $214k
They have gotta be off their rocker !
I guess they got to do it like that to get anything out of insurance??
Just wow !

Many, many similar bills in my history….

It’s like they bill everything separate, department wise . I guess they get more that way. Idk.

Me too. Just when I think I'm getting them whittled down they come up with another bill.
I think they have people who just dig around when things are slow at the office trying to find something else they can charge you for.

That's the thing, we who actually pay are just supporting all those who don't.
Almost any day of the week the ER at the hospital looks like a UN assembly meeting.
The last time I saw that many foreigners in one place I was the foreigner.

When I got the bill for a week in the hospital last year, when I had covid, I told them to send the bill to Doc Fraudci. And I pointed with my middle finger.
