[QUOTE="MorkandMindy, post: 75383268, member: 172332"] Each main part of the NHS links to two or three other parts. Some parts of the US Healthcare system link with a hundred other parts. For example a hospital needs to allocate charges, often by proportioning each to a first payer, usually a second payer and a third payer and there can be a fourth payer and even a fifth which might be the payer of last resort allocated after one of the previous payers has refused. Each of these payers might be one of a multitude of health insurance plans and as I discovered last week, the government subsidy could come from the federal government, the state (US is 50 states plus 3 districts), or in my case it turned out to be - the county. I had a simple procedure in this county which was covered by my medical plan but one of the staff - the doctor - had an office in another county which I would not have guessed, and was not covered by the same plan and this 'surprise billing' is fairly common it turns out and payment is due today.
