Sure. One horror story is about a person who got a huge bill for just a simple check - up. They thought their insurance would cover most of it, but ended up owing thousands of dollars because some procedures were considered 'out - of - network' without their knowledge.

Well, there was a case where a patient needed emergency surgery. The hospital made them wait for hours in the waiting room, despite being in critical condition, just because they were sorting out insurance details. By the time the surgery happened, the patient's condition had worsened a lot.
