First, they're from South Korea. Paying even a cent of this would be a stupidly bad financial idea. Why? There is absolutely no reason. Let the hospital send the bill to some creditors and let them try to collect in South Korea. Honestly, the situation is laughable. Second, the article thinks that this was fraud. Figures. It may not be too late for them to call the hospital and point this out and ask them to zero out the balance. This hospital, when it had its prior name, did something similar for a friend of mine, albeit his bill was about $1-2k and it was not fraud. Considering they might be on the wrong side of the law, this seems like a solution both sides can get behind.
