Hospitals and other vampires will intentionally bill your insurance and label services as items they know receive less coverage under your plan. They make less $$$ per service if your insurance covers it rather than if it's a service item that fully lands on your deductible first.

Most people just see the bill, and pay it if it matches the SoB from their insurance. Call and force the hospital to bill appropriately. Quote your coverage policy at them.

On a side note, most insurance policies pay for a portion of air transport if you get air lifted to the hospital but most don't pay nearly the entire bill. However, most air transport companies offer supplemental policies that are very cheap and cover your entire household. It is well worth the money if you ever get flown out of a terrible accident scene. Also, most of these companies honor the policies of the other providers. Except in WA, our faggot AG thinks that somehow that stifles competition or some bullshit and you have to have policies at both the local providers. ( AirLift NW and LifeFlight) Still worth the money. It's less than a hundred bucks a year apiece.

I work innawoods and have the full family lifetime Lifeflight coverage. It was very cheap. Something like $1,500 one-time for a family for life.
