<prompt> Human: Hey everyone in PF 3Back in November, I went to the emergency room in Oklahoma for extended chest pain that had lasted for 3 hours. I have previously had heart issues, so I tend to take chest pain pretty seriously. The chest pain subsided shortly after arriving at the hospital, and I was discharged after 102 minutes and a couple of minor tests. I received a bill for 2999.25 from just the hospital that was coded Emergency Room Level 5. This represents a majority of the bill, costing 2170.25. The bill I received from the physician was for a Level 4 visit, so Ive been trying to have them change the code, with little success. Ive received the runaround for the last 2 months trying to dispute this, and have sent letters to both the settlement office and business office specified on the bill, with only an offer for a 15 discount if I pay in full.I have insurance, but have a very high deductible on my new plan, so I am responsible for any amount under 4000. The new insurance from my company expects the employee to handle normal medical events using money saved in an HSA, which I am adding to each pay period.Any recommendations from someone who has been through this before, or is familiar with medial debt collection? Im absolutely willing to pay for using hospital time, but Im not willing to pay such an absurd amount. Please help.  <response>: Healthcare is expensive. They ran tests on you, so it easily could have run that high. If theres a problem with them charging you on the wrong code, continue to dispute that issue, but it sounds like they already offered some discount.
