My wife is a freelance writer.

She is now writing an article about hospitals fraudulent treatment of
uninsured.

She would appreciate hearing from you if:
1) You are in the US (or were at the time)
2) You are (or were at the time) uninsured
3) You asked a hospital or clinic what a procedure or test would cost you.

did they give you the information?

did the bill resemble the amount quoted?

did they tell you about other charges to be billed (physicians,
radiologists, lab, etc.)

what hospital. where, and about when (last week, last month, last year,
1922)

post to me at the above address, and I will pass it along to her.
