- RandallBrown 8y agoHospitals have a billing department. You go talk to them and say "I am unable to pay this amount." There is probably a number on your bill to call.
- jjoonathan 8y agoAnd then they look up your income on one of a dozen information gathering platforms and decide that you qualify for a 2% discount, because privacy doesn't matter and hospital price gouging isn't a problem. Enjoy!
