I am a dummy.

I put off and put off and put off calling the hospital to take care of my bill when I had my miscarriage in May. We were going through a crazy hard time, and didn’t have any insurance right them, but b/c my husband wasn’t working at the time either, we were able to get on medicaid. It was crazy, b/c my appointment was AFTER I miscarried, and I didn’t know if they would cover me, etc. etc. etc. All this to say that I did end up having medicaid that covered me when I miscarried. But it was hard. I didn’t want to call the hospital, probably b/c I didn’t want to think about my hospital visit, and I put it off and put it off. They sent it to hospital collections and I still didn’t call….just because. Not for any good reason, except that I didn’t want to or didn’t think about it until late at night when Satan always whispers to me what a loser I am for not doing the things I’m suposed to. Well, on to the good news. I called them 10 minutes ago. I think finding the number took longer than actually clearing up the charges. I talked to a really nice lady and explained that I just put it off, and she just ran my medicaid number and it went through. I was probably on the phone with her for 3 minutes! It was relatively painless, and now the weight is off my sholders, and I can mark that off my list. Phew….why oh why can’t I just do things when I need to do them!
