Insult
The hospital resent the bill. As requested, the recharge of the bonus for early payment had been dropped. Then everything had been moved twice to other invoices, re-added, new charges, with dates that make no sense. Now they claim I owe them another $458 dollars. Spent 10 minutes on hold trying to get through today, but after hearing the "leave a message" message and being dumped into the menu a few times, decided to go in person to begin the next set of hours of discussion.
Feeling grumpy due to many factors. Perhaps this will give a chance to deal with it.
On the other hand, pork still good. Pickles still good. Sorry, cvirtue, I'm not going to know if they go manky after two weeks, they'll all be gone by Thursday afternoon at this rate.
But at a cost of $6 for 4 containers of dill pickles, pickled onions, and pickled peppers, and the ease of doing it, I'll certainly be doing it again.
However, I just remembered...I left 4 lbs of ham in the oven all day. So much for that...
EDIT: Talked to the nice man. Supervisor invoked. Now we have the whole "but that's a legit charge" thing. I'll deal with it in the afternoon.
EDIT II: Dropped the 2nd wound visit charge (I was not informed that you only get one) but insist the $400 lab charges, which did not show up on any of the earlier bills, be honored. I checked 3 times with different people as to whether those had been covered. They all said I was clear. What happens now?
