But how can needing 17k worth of medical procedures be anything but a beat?

Adjustments can mean payment and write off so unless you show the real EOB from the ins co, this is just a statment from the doctor saying you owe $15. My guess is the person who data entered the payment from the insurance company posted it wrong and this is why nothing is showing up in the Insurance Payment column.

There is no way an insurance company would tell a doctor to write off ALL of the claim except the patient's copay. Just wouldn't happen.

Sorry to bust your Brag. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Although you can still brag, 18K worth of medical care for $15, not bad at all.

Or maybe he needed penile skin grafts after spending August trying to fill up a film canister with cum.

Yeah, now that I think about it, everything being in the adjustments column doesn't make sense, but...

...this is the crux of my post. When I first saw the $17,000+ I was like [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img], but then I saw that I owed $15 and I was like bwahahahhhahahaahaha.

LOL, I hear you. I had a 22K surgery and paid a $100 copay. Sweetness.
