fumbling through the world of medical bills

Hey- do you have United Health Care? Have you recently gotten blood and/or urine tests done at the hospital? Did UHC not pay a dime? Was your hospital "in-network?"

Guess what--as a part of the RAP Clause, you can re-submit your claim and because it was done at a preferred hospital they should pay some or all of it.

Of course, no one tells you that from UHC. You have to do what I did, call the people charging me and ask about discrepencies in the bill. After about 10 min. of confusing conversation, the lady was nice enough to tell me about RAP and hopefully I won't have to pay for this stuff.

We'll know in 3-5 business days.

Dealing with medical bills and health insurance is the frustrating, time consuming exercise. It's no wonder why health costs are so high!
