Mistakes Affect Everyone

Medical billing is a complicated and ever changing system. Describe a medical billing situation which has affected you or someone you know. Remember when discussing medical conditions, it is best to not use actual names but less specific identifies such as, "my sister" or "my friend." Analyze this situation from a healthcare operations perspective and discuss where the system potentially failed to produce efficient results.

In your post discuss a situation where medical billing errors have affected you or someone you know. If you or someone you know hasn't experienced this, do research on the Internet and find a case where a medical billing error has affected someone. Analyze the situation from an operations management perspective and offer a potential solution to prevent similar situations in the future.
