Got hit with a 10k medical bill. If I’m forced to take out a long payment plan I guess I can cover it, but I’d rather not
High deductible plan with a 10k limit, and I just hit it with an emergency appendectomy that required six days in the hospital. My insurance is covering two of the nights of the stay, even though I needed the six because of complications from the surgery. If I can set up a 5 year payment plan I can cover it, but I’d like a house someday and other shit that should be normal. I may have noticed some inconsistencies in my itemized bill, but I don’t think that they’d be enough to get me under tha deductible anyway. Is a five year payment plan even realistic? Is there any universe where I can get this reduced? I make pretty decent money, and I’m single with no dependents, so that’s a hard bargain to ask for a discount. I hate health insurance in this country so much.
