Hi- I need advice on how/if to proceed. I have two claims with a hospital that, according to my insurance, I currently cannot be billed for by the provider. One claim was deemed "not medically necessary" after being admitted to the hospital by my physician. The other claim was for imaging that the provider did not receive prior-authorization for from my insurance.

According to both EOBs I cannot be billed by my provider unless I "gave written permission before the service was rendered".

My questions are:

Is there any reason to contact either my insurance or provider at this time? I have not received a bill, only EOBs from insurance. Is it possible I signed something while be admitted that would allow the hospital to bill me?

Location is Georgia. Will the provider and insurance company work this out and I eventually receive a bill for my portion? I would just like to know what to expect in this situation.
