$200K for a couple of days in the ICU?
Sounds pretty cheap to me, given my recent experience:
A couple of months ago, I had a simple, common five minute outpatient procedure.
A few years ago, I had the same thing, and received a single bill for $2,500.00, which I thought was pretty outrageous.
So far on this one, I have received thirteen bills from nine different entities in six states, totaling $27, 342.48.
And they won’t even itemize them to say what they are charging me for. Just “Pay now, (or else)”
Retain a medical billing negotiator.
“Show me the signed contract”...
