$143K Hospital Bill Shocks Snake Bite Victim

[Foxrac]

I find the timing of this change most interesting.

How does timing changes?

 

[TXgolfer]

If his insurance pay 100% so it is great.

If not then hospital will have to write off if they don't want bill any remaining balance to patient.

Pretty no difference from person to other person whoever have insurance.

This article doesn't include about final one after insurance pays.

I'm getting little frustrated now because I'm trying to clarify to make you understand, however it is not agree or disagree. It is all way for how insurance works.

I know exactly how insurance works. the hospital says in the article they will not bill the student.... End of story.

 

[TXgolfer]

from one moderator, of course but it is up to one to define about name calling.

The report isn't about name calling only but add to make fun of me.

Or ribbing

Care to explain in quote above?

Fore is just golf word - interesting

I never used "fore" and....at this point no.

Oh my, this thread turned into adult playground with all debate.

Now, you are free to debate about political, healthcare, etc whatever you want.

My rule isn't work anymore.

Have fun.

yep. I just got back from restaurant to have some steak in Texas and what do I see.... a farce.

Wow we agree on something

Edit: Forgot to add my dinner. I am at Mozzeria again. Gotta support my fellow deafies!

 

[Jiro]

yes. indeed I am glad that we agreed that this farce created by you was a farce.

Oh that would be where we disagree of course. I just tried to follow th OPs wishes. Not my fault those wishes changed and the subject kept bouncing around.

yes.... you were heckling around.

shame that nobody can even abide by a simple rule of conduct. for that, I guess there's no need for me to stick around since nobody's interested in having an intellectual conversation about this without resorting to politicization and flaming.

Sorry you feel that way. I of course disagree.

of course. predictable response.

Sorry, that's not end of story. You don't get it.

1) Patient receives medical treatment

2) Patient gives insurance information to someone who register

3) The hospital bill to insurance company to make payment

4) The hospital receives payment from insurance company

5) The hospital make change the balance after insurance paid all or some.

6) If balance is all clear because insurance pay 100% so they don't bill any remaining balance to patient, it is known as OUT OF POCKET. - All done...

but... if balance isn't clear, especially only pay 80% of $143,000 - means $28,600 to left.

7) It is up to hospital to write off - all of balance or just some part.

8) All final bill with updated balance after insurance and hospital write off covered so will send to patient so it is their responsible to pay out of pocket expenses.

Now, the article doesn't say about out of pocket expenses so they are currently BILL to insurance company right now.

My aunt is director of nursing and I learned from her about how insurance works.

Are you joking at me about between me with Obama (in #3 post)?

You are golfer so say fore is new to me so you should know because you are golfer.

The steak is too good to taste?

Oh yup, I smell farce in here.

Oh yup, the forum is getting more loosen now than before.

Nothing like 2005 and 2006 that where members got banned for trolling, provoking, enticing, bashing, flaming, etc.

Now, not much anymore.

The article says the patient will not be billed by Scripps.....it doesn't say "for now" Maybe your article is wrong.

Ok, what happen if insurance don't pay in full?

 

[diehardbiker]

O, Thats right yeah TXgolfer.

Seriously, this is political issue. If you want changes, it has to go to political process, right?

I know you want to stay low, if staying low then I bet your ass that nothing will change.

Who are you refer to? me or TXgolfer.

I don't want my thread turns into extreme political that leading to countless debate so I just want to be low profile, that it.

 

[TXgolfer]

ask Scripps
