Call the hospital, get the billing department ask if you can talk to someone about reducing the bill.

I had a similar situation once, said my chest hurt and everyone freaked out and I ended up with a 5k ER bill. With no actual answer to why my chest hurt, and was still hurting.

I talked to the hospital they set up an appointment with a woman, I showed bank statements, income, insurance information. Ultimately, because I had very little income or money at the time. They just forgave the entire amount. No more bill.

Definitely worth a shot.

Just a friendly reminder to lock your credit.

I had a block of cheese one time, they went crazy about it. X-rayed it a bunch. They really didn’t like that cheese.

The name mastodon literally means “breast tooth,” referring to the the “nipple”-shaped bumps along the top edges of these animals’ teeth.

I played Alto in school, never really got into it. Then switched up to baritone, loved it.
