Naturally your hospital must accept Medicare assignements.  If they
accept any medicare assignements they must accept it for PVP.   I now
remember they billed me for the whole thing and then a few days later
got a revised bill with the medicare adjustment.  I think there was
something like $8 that was not covered by medicare and I just went
ahead and paid it.

Sounds great!   I have supplimental insurance so I might even save the $8!

Already taking into account any supplimental.  Perhaps it was one of
those $8 aspirins:-).

Initial hospital bill was for a lot more than what Medicare gave
them.  They are trying to cover the cost of the emergency room filled
with non paying Spanish Speakers:-).

Just got to thinking, if you stay overnight you might get hit with the
Part A deductible, $992.
