re: **updated Need advice on how to address ER visit bill

No where near your expenses but had carrier deny a prescription, too soon to 're-fill, and got absolutely no resolution....something about their pathways/methods. Told her fine but in the event of an untoward outcome we'll 're-visit their pathways/methods and next time we'll just skip the visit to the doctor and call them direct given they know so much in the first place....welcome to socialized medicine the American way.
