I review my mom’s medical bills all the time and can’t figure out each line item. I recently went through outpatient surgery and the pre-bill (before filing with the insurance company) charged over $1,000 for ‘room and board’. The insurance company didn’t pay a cent on that line item and the hospital accepted their payout. What I wonder is how they get away with billing that line item in the first place. If they accepted no money for the line item, isn’t that basically an admission that it was a bogus charge to begin with? Isn’t that fraud?

Yes. Tax write offs. Total scam, and everyone is in on the game
