5 Ways You Might Still Get a Surprise Medical Bill
Even with the No Surprises Act and its consumer protections now in effect, you can still get an unexpected bill. Here's what to do.

5 Ways You Might Still Get a Surprise Medical Bill - Consumer Reports


I knew this was nothing to get excited about. It’s created by politicians who absolutely can NOT relate to everyday people or individuals with disabilities.

Politicians who work for the government and don’t worry about medical insurance and medical bills.

I’m very upset. I stopped receiving Xolair injections for Chronic Urticaria because I could no longer afford the office visits.

My immunologist said he would have someone look into this. I have an appointment next month to follow up.

My credit had multiple medical bills and a few were listed more than once. It doesn’t matter if you make regular payments the medical system expects people on a fixed income to pay a bill off in 3 payments. I keep a spreadsheet with all my medical bills and payments.

I have Medicare and don’t qualify for Medicaid. I’ve been denied multiple times because of income. There are so many medications NOT covered by Medicare.

I’ve had lab work NOT covered. My Endocrinologist is looking into why my last thyroid labs were denied and deemed NOT NECESSARY. Some days are a real struggle…
