Turns out if you rack up 2.4 million in hospital bills they will throw in a free baseball cap! Who says health care doesn’t give back???

Actually we were having trouble keeping track of all of the twins EOB’s (explanation of benefits). We would get one from October and then in the same pile of mail one from February. Then we got a letter saying we were going to collections due to bills not being paid. Don’t even get Tadd started on that one. We went back to our EOB’s and it showed we were 100% covered and the insurance agreed with us so we didn’t understand why this outside medical group was saying they weren’t paid. It was a little sketchy. My favorite part was when they said they had sent us 3 letters asking for payments. When going over the information it turns out they were using an old address. Heres the kicker, the collection letter came to the right address…..things to make you say hmmmmm. So Tadd spoke with the head of benefits at Cottage Hospital and they sent us each EOB in chronological order in a huge stack. Included was a nice note and the lovely baseball hat.
