I spent some time in the hospital The nursing staff is great. But the hospital plays the insurance system. If the hospital claims they accept your insurance, make sure that you ask if their labs accept the insurance. Any physician who just say Hi, ask him/her if S/he accepts your insurance. if not, send him away. It is an organized white collar crime. You can easily owe over $500,000 even if you have an insurance accepted in this hospital. Do not accept any test unless you fully understand it's benefit and why do they do it so frequently. Request clearly that they only provide you with in-network physician and in-network approved services. if this is impossible, make sure you know how much will you be paying for every single step. Be in contact every day with your insurance provider and share with them all procedures/tests done on you daily.
