Goes to show how bad our healthcare system is even if we HAVE insurance. I had chest pain a while back, went to the hospital, doctor ordered a few tests. I was insured with United Healthcare, out of a 1200 dollar bill, they paid 30 bucks. I was so upset I canceled without deputing like i had to do with almost every other doctor visit in which they refused to pay. It didn't seem right that I pay over 100 bucks a month for insurance, and they wont pay. Now i'm getting bills for it, I think NC law says the hospital can't report it to your credit, but it don't stop them from turning it over to a collection agency that can. I know some states forbid this, but not NC. I went to medicaid, they can't cover me because I have a job, despite my income, that is, unless i'm a non-american...thats just wrong I think. I plan on buying a home soon, is there any organization out there than can help me? If not, is there something i can do? My coverage obviously wasn't worth a d**n.
