Hi again Danielle,

One of the scarier things that's happening is someone taking your info and using it to have surgery! I read (somewhere) about a woman getting a hospital bill for $30K for bogus cosmetic surgery - and the hospital took her to court and won! She was able to work out a repayment plan and I think the court took some off the balance, but it still cost dearly.

I'm in a battle right now with the hospital I use regarding copays and they are merciless - threw about 30 bills into collection without telling me (I could have just paid them, but they had to be a$$holes about it). Hospitals are going to be more mercenary with the arrival of the ACA because (I think) it limits their prices for procedures (not sure, and don't want to start a political discussion).
