"Medical Billing Advocates can be very helpful ... they can help you get [medical billing mistakes] fixed." Elizabeth Cohen, CNN Senior Medical Correspondent
"A recent Harvard study showed that a staggering 80% of hospital bills contain errors and most of them are in the hospital's favor", Diane Sawyer, Good Morning America
Errors in medical bills are so common that both The New York Times and Good Morning America suggested using medical billing advocates to make sure you aren't overcharged: "consider hiring a billing specialist - a professional trained to spot errors who speaks the language that medical providers understand and respond to."
And that's what we do - save you money.
