It wasn't just his doctor it is the whole system which is somewhat unavoidable.

We are lucky to have good health insurance, and a simple ER visit to get stitches or an X-Ray will invoke 5 pieces of mail from 3 different entities. You have to watch out for student Doctors who will send you a bill for being in the room. It's too much to think about when you should be focused on taking care of your health issue.

This is one of my biggest pet peeves. The biggest bill I've ever had get processed wrong is the only one where lawyers ended up getting involved, and what the other side's lawyers sent was a form my wife signed while in labor (was at an 8 when we got there) while I was out of the room agreeing to pay the bill however the hospital decided to bill it. They said that excused their mistake, and now that it was too late to bill insurance (had been over a year) we were on the hook.

Could you provide proof that you were charged because a student was in your room or in the operating room?

What type of proof would be good for you?
