I have fucking tried to appeal directly to the insurance. I have contacted the hospital directly to say I should not have to pay for the difference between a semi private and private room when semi private isn't even an option

And then when the hospital resubmitted my completely unchanged paperwork and made it worse I contacted the rep my company hires to intercede in this sort of situation.

I have done everything in my damn power to fix this and it still keeps coming back and I'm so angry and tired and I don't have 6.5k. And even if I did I shouldn't have to pay this. And the fact it's going to completely ruin my credit because nothing is fixing it is so AGDYDYDYDDY

I'm gonna call the hospital again during their business hours, because what else can I do? But given that I've already done this, like. What's even the point?

Anyway. I hate that the lesson from this is "sure insurance is set up so that if you go to a hospital ER and are admitted, it counts as in network even if it's not because we don't want you wasting time during an emergency. But like, you do need to call around to try and find if any fucking hospitals happen to still have semi private rooms."

Btw: all of them that I know of in my area have switched to private

I just wanna sleep through the night not wake up and stress about money I shouldn't owe

Like agshsjd they have enough to cover that damn visit. I paid 2.5k to meet my deductible. My insurance paid prolly 100k to the hospital (more when counting the individual drs)

Anyway. I'm gonna go walk the dog since I'm clearly not going back to sleep this morning.
