The whole billing system is nonsense, but I blame the University. It was one of their surgeons - separate 'company' - faculty physicians or whatever nonsense...but I mean I am set up for literally every online notification there is. I should have known it was there, and I just wasn't informed. Not my email, I don't THINK by snail mail (although it is possible it was recycled without opening, most of our mailbox is trash), and not in mychart/myportfolio.

just lame. probably didn't ding my credit but grrrr.

I've literally had the same thing happen.

Ethically, I don't blame anyone who gets entirely blind sided in these ways. Without proper notification, how can they be responsible? It used to be easy to keep up with bills, and for many sorts of bills, it still is, but a surprise is a surprise.
