If the hospital performs procedure X on you, and the reinbursement rate for that procedure is $100...
How much will that hospital get paid if 100% of all customers paid their bill?
Answer $100

Answer $100...
The HOSPITAL pays for it.. Not the insured... The billable rate doesnt change based upon the reinbursement percentage the hospital manages to collect from.
A fact....we pay for the uninsured. If you don't believe that then I'm sorry. You think the hospital pays for it lol They pass the expense onto us.

You havent explained how they pass the expense onto you, (or the insurance company)...
BECAUSE THEY DONT.. Simply saying they do, dont make it true..
The medical field isnt a field where prices are set by supply and demand.. where if person A shoplifts and doesnt pay for services, the cost needs shifted to others..

Costs are raised to the insured to compensate for those that aren't. Sorry, this is my husbands field. Is this your field too.

No, BILLED rates to the insured are raised but PAYABLE rates are NOT.. They absolutely positively are not.. The rates are established in November/December OF THE PRECEEDING YEAR..
You better talk to your husband because you clearly dont know what the hell you're talking about..

You have no idea what you are talking about. Let's see......my husband who knows because it's his field or you who relies on articles in the news. I'll go with my husband

Its more than one fricken article. Anyone who's "husband" is in the field and doesnt understand that insurance companies pay UCR and ICD10 reinbursement rates PREDETERMINED by zipcode, and then subdetermined by percentiles, WAY BEFORE any patient is seen, needs to go talk to their husband.
Thats about as meaningful as you telling me you're husbands a pilot thus you can go fly a plane.. Give it a break. Tell me, did you stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night ?
Its way more than an article.. UCR rates have been around for DECADES..

And I've asked you how that cost is shifted to the insured, since once again, the reinbursement rate the insurance companies pay are already predeetermined based upon procedure code.
Can you explain it to me, since I didnt stay at a Holiday Inn...
