It’s not at all like any other debt. Experience has taught us that hospital bills are not real. What is billed depends entirely on who is being billed not what was done or supplied. Uninsured patients may pay dramatically more than an insurance co. pays. And Medicare pays a different amount and a workers compensation plan will be billed on an another scale.
Someone or everyone is getting screwed and it’s not the hospital.

I had to pay $900 out of pocket on top of what insurance paid for 2 non-invasive hearing tests. Just sat in a room and said yes when I heard a noise.

Why wasn’t it a co-pay for the office visit? Because the office I visited just happened to be attached to a hospital.

Everyone, even the hospital, gets screwed by the ones not paying their bills.
