I tell you what, I'm going to send your article to those b@$&
@& I'm negotiating with right now. I'm sure that will induce them to offer me more than I normally charge. 
You don't have a clue what you are talking about.Love when someone can’t admit they are wrong!I tell you what, I'm going to send your article to those b@$&
You certainly won't. You have NO clue what you are talking about, but you think you do.
I made a statement.
Hospitals take cash payments that are cheaper than what insurance pays.
That’s true.
Article proves it’s true.
Others on this thread confirm it.
I’ve done it myself with a hospital.
are you saying this statement isn’t true? “
Hospitals take cash payments that are cheaper than what insurance pays.”
Ahh, take payments, you finally hit on the truth, but you had no idea you did, and still don't. Your article doesn't prove anything. It's an article written by a reporter for a website. He doesn't have anymore clue than you do. Hospitals take payments all over the place. Cash payments are, as was pointed out to you above, are often dependent on what somebody can pay. That doesn't mean it's policy. The negotiated price for insurance networks is almost always below the nominal charge. Well below it some. The reimbursement rate is something else again. Again, are you in the business? You can have the last word.

I said hospitals take less for cash than they do for insurance.
they do.
You can try to manipulate that any way you want but you are wrong or just lying.
By the way that article references multiple studies but reading probably isn’t your thing.
