[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very common and becoming more common. Have a non-defensive conversation with them about why their calculation is incorrect, get the right amount, and pay it. Many places won't do the procedure without payment in advance. I don't blame them at all. [/quote] A person has no obligation to pay the hospital in advance. [/quote] I don't think that is true. It is perfectly legal and common for hospitals to require advance payment before rendering non-emergency services. http://money.cnn.com/2014/09/29/news/economy/hospitals-deductibles-payments-patients/ http://www.bloomberg.com/bw/articles/2014-09-25/why-hospitals-want-patients-to-pay-upfront [/quote]
