[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3656519, member: 58386"] Once again the typical consercuk. A program that stands to benefit you directly is a great program and money well spent but a program that doesn't directly benefit you is government waste. Remember hospitals have to set aside a certain amount of money for charitable care. Of course they're going to have to ratchet up their charges to generate that money. At the same time they send unpaid bills over to debt collectors in an attempt to collect the money. Likewise when a person dies the unpaid bills go over to estate recovery in an attempt to collect. As far as over charges if that provider is on assignment say for example a Blue Cross licensed affiliate they have to accept the insurers allowable charges as payment in full. [/QUOTE]
