Comment on If you receive a high medical bill, don't pay it immediately. Ask for an itemized bill first.

  Funny for me too. I’ve never received a bill from a hospital visit.

  I have, or well from other doctors at least. Our universal healthcare doesn’t pay things they don’t consider important. Paying everything would undermine their bargaining power.

  But those bills are always itemized.

    Thanks for that, interesting to hear. It boggles my mind why anyone would pay ANY bill that isn’t itemised.
