Question on hospital bills?

I spent a night in the hospital this past weekend due to an accidental overdose of prescription. Was discarded any type of mental problems and chemical dependency problems with me. I wonder how much the bills will be for me, am I covered by insurance health with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota. During my 12 hours (or so) gave me a saline solution, a urine test which was negative for illegal drugs, blood was drawn from me. They put on an electrocardiogram. They gave me a ride home in a taxi (which the hospital pays for) and had breakfast. The questions I ask myself is: 1. How much think is going to cost? 2. When a hospital bill comes in the mail, will be from the hospital or will say "Blue Cross and Blue Shield insurance" on the envelope? "Also how long it takes a hospital bill go?

All this depends on your insurance coverage. It must refer to what he had done in the hospital. Does you a deductible? O co-insurance? (where you pay a percentage and the insurance pays a percentage). If so, you will have to pay this. It usually takes a while. The hospital bill the insurance company, the insurance company will then issue payment to the hospital, so anything that is not covered you will be charged. Proceed the hospital and can take a week to more than a month to receive a bill. it depends on how quickly the hospital bills and how quickly the insurance company claims payment. Call your insurance company to find out its benefits.
