Unfortunately, someone that is paid $7 an hour to invoice insurance companies from the hospital has no desire to assist the ill. Every person I encountered in hospital administration is punching the clock. I was really lucky to have my mother review my bills. I was only looking for the total hospital billing until my insurance kicked in at 100%. Fortunately, she knew the codes and could see the errors immediately. I am hoping to volunteer the hospital when my treatments are finished to help other women. I saw so many young girls waiting for chemotherapy and I am sure they did not have the life experience or work experience to deal with the financial side of having cancer. Most people do not realize that cancer is big business for hospitals.
