I agree with you on medical bills.  We live on only SS and it is hard to pay all the bill's each month.  We have an $1100.00 bill coming for leukemia testing on my husband and I do not know where we will get the money for this medical bill.  We keep the Oncologist paid up to date because if you have any balance owing, they come right out to the waiting room and give you the bill and ask you to pay for it then before you get to see the Dr.  This offends me, but I abide by their rules.
