Did he fly around the globe a couple times and then see a specialist in Switzerland? $46k is freaking ridiculous. The medical billing industry is out of freaking control.
I fully understand the costs here, but I can rent a Helicopter ride for 60 minutes for $500. There's no way it should cost $46k for 3 hours of flight time.
First thing I'd do is tell them that they either talk to you today or you contact your lawyer tomorrow and everything else is through your lawyer.
Several years ago my grandfather was still alive he got sick and I took him to our local hospital, they decided he needed to go to a big city hospital and that he wouldn't survive an ambulance trip, so they loaded him on the Life Alert and flew him 90 miles north to the closes big hospital. Some months later as I was paying his bills and such the bill for that helicopter ride came in. 90 miles $18K . I was shocked, but that old fart "Should have just let me die rather than pay that" hell VA paid for it anyway , but that is ridiculous for a helicopter ride.
