Well it finally happened. I have started receiving medical bills for my long stay in the hospital in January.
My mom had graciously agreed to pay all the bills for me. She just wanted me to get better, and not worry about the money issues.
But in the past week we have already received over $1,200 in bills. And the doctor hasn't sent his bill yet.
Originally we thought I wouldn't have much to pay, because in-patient care is sometimes covered 100%.
I have good insurance, with a deductible of only $635. So I'm not sure why the amount is so much. We will have to look into it some more. But I don't feel comfortable letting my mom pay it all, so it's definitely going to affect our budget. Just not sure how much yet.
Garden boxes were filled in, but it's been getting below freezing at night, and it has been raining all day yesterday, last night, and still raining today. Planting will have to wait a little while longer. Until then the plants will do fine in our sun room.

I can't explain why there are so many errors in billing, perhaps it's pressure on billing clerks who have every stroke counted or the profit demanded by shareholders but it's gone to ridiculous.
