I'm not American originally so the medical billing thing genuinely broke my brain. Got a bill that made no sense, itemized codes I couldn't read, an amount I was sure was wrong. Instead of paying it out of confusion, I pasted the whole thing into Claude and asked it to explain each line and whether any of it looked incorrect or negotiable. It flagged two duplicate charges, explained what a good-faith dispute letter should say, and wrote one citing the specific codes. I sent it basically as-is. The bill came back at $180. I know this is the boring, unsexy use, but it saved me a thousand dollars and an argument I didn't know how to have. What's the most 'adult admin' thing it's rescued you from?

Hi I was wondering which companies you have made money at under good conditions and which to stay away from?

Hi gang,

I’m a month post-op for my 3rd ACL reconstruction in the same knee (yay hyper mobility and bad surgeons), and I’m really confused about something white that looks like string sticking out of my scar. I’m wondering if it’s not the end of the surgeon’s sutures which he didn’t correctly place under the skin or some other surgical material, because I tried pulling it out with sanitized tweezers and it seeks really deep and stuck. It can’t be an external piece of gauze or anything which somehow got stuck because I had a hydro colloidal bandage for the first 5 days and then a non-adhesive surgical bandage for 6 more before my staples were removed, so nothing could have gotten stuck in the wound post-surgically, as the wound was already very healed by then. I’m going to call the follow up team but just wondered if anyone had dealt with this before. Video in URL.
