I've been watching ur program for sometimes now and today's topics were truly a way for me to share my experience.. There are so many silent voices and am one of them..Am still paying my medical bills and 🙏 that it will be finished but decide not to go to the hospital if I don't have even a 100

I have two insurance cards. I have a primary and a secondary, the primary is when they 1st sent off the bill to the prime. Thay pays most of the bill, the secondary primary pays the rest of the bill and it leaves me a 0 ballots. I've gave the hospital both insurance cards when they sent it off they got both cards mixed up so they did not pay neither one of the insurance. Almost a year later I happened to be looking at my credit report and found both hospital bills on my credit. I called the hospital up and told them and they said they mixed up the insurance cards and they will re send them back, to the insurance. Well it's been over 6 months and both hospital bills are still on my credit. What can I do to speed this up or who can I talk to to take care of this Both of my insurance said, if they send the bill they will pay it... The man that's trying to build-up his credit score...

WHY CAN'T HOSPITALS CHARGE HONESTLY? WHY IS THEIR CRIMINAL BILLING PRACTICES LEGAL? WHY IS THERE NO ACCOUNTABILITY WITH WRONGFUL BILLING? HOW IS CHARGING SOMEONE FOR SOMETHING THEY NEVER RECEIVED ANY DIFFERENT THAN SHOPLIFTING? AREN'T BOTH, TAKING SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T BELONG TO THEM? DISHONEST PEOPLE BECOME HONEST WHEN THEY HAVE TO FACE YOU, BUT IF THEY NEVER SEE YOU, WHY WOULD THEY CARE? THE REMOVAL OF HUMAN INTERACTION IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THESE DAMN PROBLEMS. PUT THE EXECUTIVES ON THE FRONT LINES AND SEE WHAT THEIR CRIMINAL PROFITS DO. THEY KNOW THIS, WHY DO YOU THINK IT'S SET UP THIS WAY?
