Another post to feed America Bad and EU Good circlejerk on Lemmy.
Yes, the system is bad and we should have universal healthcare but I never had to call anyone to figure anything out in the past 15 years. The hospital sends me the bills after getting it through insurance. Not sure who your insurance provider is but this issue is not common.
Not sure how large but I recently got a bill for $3000 without having any issues. It took a while for it to get through the insurance but I didn’t have to make any calls. If you are disputing each charge and getting them to reduce the bill, then that’s a different story. Again, maybe only my experience has been good.
