【AgonyUncle】Question regarding medical bill disputeHi Uncle, I was in US for a holiday and fell sick during the trip. I went to see a doctor in a public hospital. I paid a deposit of US$3k and they told me if any refund they will mail me a cheque, if the deposit not enough they will bill me again. I recently got a call from their agent asking for further payment. I have received the detailed bill from them and actually think that they are overcharging for very simple medical service. Do you have any advice on how I can dispute such bill?

You may wish to check with American Medical Association website to see ascertain whether the charges are reasonable.

If you have evidence that they have you may right to the doctor to claim the refund.
