re: Negotiating medical bills

Fresh out of school (uninsured) I got an $11,000 bill from Tulane for kidney stone "treatment" that included 6 hours in the ER, two saline bags, an x-ray, a CT scan and a demerol. I didn't "have" $11,000 so I waited for a few bills to pile up before calling Tulane. I flat out said there was no way I could pay it and they said "could you pay $3,400?". So they knocked it down 75% pretty damn easily. I sent them a check.

I've been told that as long as they 20% they are usually ok to leave you alone after that.
