I don't blame these hospitals for wanting their cut up front. They can't take anything away from you like the utility, mortgage or, finance company can if you fail to pay.
I have a $3800 deductible and, had to pay it all, up front this year before they would do surgery on my wife. The gal acted like she hated to have to tell me that (I'm sure she catches a lot of flack for having to tell people this) but, I didn't flinch and, told her that I understood why.
