I was balance billed, so I went to the hospital in person to deal with the issue. I was nit permitted to go to the business office. I was masked, but still not allowed in.

It took me having BCBS conference call them to get them to fix my bill. They tried to bilk me for over $1100.

The BCBS representative gave them a verbal lashing, and my bill was straightened out in less than 30 minutes. Unfortunately, I made numerous calls and inquiries that were total dead ends. Don t contact them yourself. Have your insurer deal with them.

This is a FOR PROFIT company. They tried to over bill me. I would normally never use this hospital, but my neurosurgeon needed a piece of equipment that was not available at Manatee Memorial.
My insurance company was billed over $150k, and they still wanted to rip me off. Health care facilities should never be traded on the stock market.

If they send you a bill after your insurance pays, call your insurer to verify they are not ripping you off.
