Oxford, PA, November 01, 2024 — Healthcare bills are rife with error and completely dysfunctional. Yet people are forced to pay-up or get dragged into a collection process they are certain to lose and see their credit destroyed. In The Big Lie in my Healthcare Bill: Why I Don’t Owe What My Insurer Fails to Pay, Frank Lobb exposes the lie in healthcare billing and how together with a ruling from the U. S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), consumers have a simple means of stopping a healthcare bill dead in its tracks.
“According to CFPB, healthcare providers can now be made to prove a bill is accurate before it can be enforced. In other words, a consumer can force the provider to prove a bill is accurate, rather than having to prove a bill is inaccurate to escape an egregious healthcare bill. Simply put, CFPB has completely reversed the burden of proof in healthcare billing,” said Lobb, “My book exposes the lie in healthcare billing and provides a step-by-step approach to fighting these error-laden fraudulent bills and winning”.
Lobb’s a step-by-step approach requires nothing more than asking a few simple questions that CFPB is advising consumers to ask on every healthcare bill. The approach isn’t an attempt to skip out on a bill, but rather a simple no-risk means of forcing the healthcare industry to adhere to the terms of their own contracts, i.e., the terms and conditions in their secret in-network Provider Agreements.
“A recent study in Decker’s Hospital Review estimated 80 percent of the nation’s healthcare bills are in error. That’s not surprising when you consider there are some 77,000 different billing codes in the system and the participants can’t agree on how those should be applied,” said Lobb. “Insurers choose to combine the care patients receive into a single code to cut the cost of what they have to pay. Doctors, hospitals and the other providers of healthcare services bill each and every code to create a larger and more profitable bill.”
