Healthcare Providers Charge Uninsured Individuals 1000% Up More
BestHealthcareRates.com states uninsured individuals, or those using out of network providers, are being billed up to 1000% more by medical providers than they would bill Medicare for the exact same procedure.
“This sort of abuse happens when people are without medical insurance or choose to use out-of-network healthcare providers. Even though our government has focused much of its attention on how much medical insurance companies pay, the real question is what are providers charging those who have no one to negotiate for them?” says Tom Carolan, director of Client Services at BestHealthcareRates.com.
This area of concern, the fees being charged to the uninsured, is one aspect of healthcare that the government’s reform policy has not touched. However, it should because there is no recourse for those who are overcharged and no guidelines in place so doctors know what to expect and patients know their options. This is yet another aspect of healthcare that needs to be addressed but is currently being neglected.
Until the government puts a better system in place, the best way to control healthcare costs is to be sure to carry good medical insurance. There are a variety of medical insurance plans out there including ones that allow use of health care providers of choice and they pay a significant portion of the costs. Investigating the various plans available will help find the one that best meets users’ needs and help them avoid being overcharged by providers who try to take advantage of patients.
By using BestHealthcareRates.com consumers can get a quote on the family health insurance or individual medical insurance any time of day or night. *
