I was an out patient for XXXX, Total time in and out was 3 hrs I payed all copay 's, my insurance payed in full the hospitals charges, A few weeks later I receive a bill from the hospital saying I ow them {$2500.00} for services rendered, I asked for an itemized bill to see what these charges pertained to, And the hospital refused to submit this bill to me, knowing that after talking to my insurance company that this was paid in full, at which time they the insurance company suggested that I get an itemized bill, the insurance company stated that there 's been a lot of medical fraud buy hospitals over charging patients, for such things like {$15.00} for a XXXX, {$100.00} for a pillow, {$75.00} for a disposable gown etc, It was then that the hospital immediately turned this in to a collection agency i believe to force me to pay this fraudulent bill, which has also blemished my excellent credit record, The insurance company would like to compare this extra bill i 'm being charged with to what has been payed for and double charges or ridicules over charges.
