When you go to the hospital, you don't have a choice, however they are largely unregulated when it comes to their billing practices which allows them to bill you in ways that would never be allowed in any other place. Let's ask for fair billing practices that are transparent and available before treatment. Everywhere else you can see your price before you buy, why not in hospitals too?
Why is this important?
I have thousands of dollars of medical bills from dozens of doctors for the same visit, charity care was approved by the hospital, but these doctors aren't obliged to take that. Now I face possible financial ruin because I had a medical problem...
