Anyone have any experience negotiating with USA hospitals for larger discounts?
I am dealing with Roper Hospital in Charleston, SC to get the surgery done and was curious if anyone had any experience "talking down" the price from the hospital? They are offering a 30% discount, but I have heard people say it should be much more. Anyone have any clue on this issue? Thanks for any help.
