<prompt> Human: Title says it all. Got a fat bill for 10,500 thanks to multiple MRIs. Im hoping to negotiate that down to a single lump payment of 4,000. Think its possible?  <response>: I perform financial statement audits for small and regional sized healthcare entities. A 40 payment on a self-pay account is a pretty good return. Its close to the Medicaid pay rate, and many of my clients are lucky to collect 15-25 of their self-pay balances each year.
