I once dropped in to a hospital near Vacaville, maybe the same one. There was a security guard at the front with a grey keypad. The would not speak to you unless you entered your Social Security Number. I made the mistake of entering it but thought nothing would happen because I didn't see any live human. Guess what? $800 bill for the pleasure of seeing exactly no service provider. This is how they work. |

So many anecdotes end with "they sent me a bill", without saying what happened next. Just because someone sends you a bill does not mean you have to pay, especially when that bill seemingly isn't based on a contract or other form of legal liability. Did you tell them to go screw, they took you to court, and they actually managed to substantiate the debt? Or if you were worried and strapped for time and just gave in to the extortion, please let us know that.
