Checklist
- Ask for an itemized hospital bill.
- Ask whether financial assistance or charity care applies.
- If insured, compare the hospital bill against the EOB.
- Ask whether any charge was denied, out-of-network, duplicated, or not yet processed.
- Ask for payment-plan terms before agreeing to pay monthly.
