Pre-Authorization Surgery Not Covered
You have pre-authorization for a surgery. It just so happens that the doctor has an emergency and is not able to perform the surgery as scheduled. You go back to the hospital 10 days later, and the surgery is performed. However, because the surgery was not performed on the original scheduled date, the insurance company […]
Can Your State Buy Out Your Medical Bills
The state of Rhode Island is suggesting using federal COVID-19 funds to pay off unpaid outstanding medical bills. Under the proposal, the state could purchase the debt for pennies on the dollar using American Rescue Plan Act funds and then eliminate the debt entirely for certain Rhode Island residents.

Whats a Zebra in Medical Terms?
One of the chapters in my book, Apparently Different, involves a doctor who, after years of twisting his neck while performing colonoscopies—looking at the patient, then the machine—wound up with a severe condition called Barrett’s esophagus. It took quite a long time to determine his condition. This condition is considered a “zebra,” a medical term […]
Does Your Health Care Bill Hurt Your Credit?
Healthcare bills won’t harm your credit as long as you don’t wait too long to settle them. Most of the time, you’re dealing directly with the medical provider, and they aren’t likely to report your payment activity—or lack thereof—to the credit bureaus. This means that while you owe the provider, your credit report will not […]

$10,000 Emergency Room Just for Medicine
I don’t know if this has ever happened to you, but have you ever received a bill from an emergency room for over $10,000, and all they did in that emergency room was give you medication? I’ve had many cases like this, and in this particular case, I was able to get a major reduction […]
Emergency Room 3 Day Visit Denies $27,000 Bill
It was the middle of the night, and a patient goes to an emergency room in excruciating pain. The ER could not diagnose the condition. My client was kept in the hospital for three days, and the insurance company said there was no need for her to be at the hospital. Even though she went […]
Explanation of Benefits Letter Denies Your Claim
You are treated and preauthorized for a medical procedure. You go to the hospital where the procedure will take place. They perform the procedure, but then you receive an explanation of benefits from the insurance company stating that the procedure was not medically necessary. I recently overturned a case where the bill was $28,000, and the […]
