Yeah Dann accurate I used to have some of the best insurance you could get and even that didn’t matter she just stopped talking insurance as BCBS kept screwing her . If not for the VA as a backup I would be fucked (we will see how long that lasts) but I have to just pay her out of the pocket for now. Honestly anything health related needs to be divorced from our jobs in the US.

Holy hell, is this real? Do they actually say “ASAP” in the letter? That feels threatening

It feels threatening because it is threatening, and it’s just the beginning. If they send it to debt collection you could end up with wages being garnished, credit being tanked (this was just recently banned 2 weeks before Trump took office but I expect it to be rolled back within a year), and other forms of harassment for hire.

This basically seems to work as we usually see the mafias or gangs enforcing their rule. Makes sense.

Oh this is just the beggining too. Sometimes you pay a bill like this and then weeks to months later you get another one and it turns out it was only part of the bill.
After my twins were born I spent 1.5 years cleaning up and dealing with medical bills. I even just got another one a few weeks ago.
