8. Check Medical Insurance Information

Be protective and possessive about your medical insurance information in the same way you are about your financial information. Always try to look at your explanation of benefits for treatments that you didn't have. You should know your medical insurance benefits and limitations well. Often people tend not to cross check their medical bells expecting them to be appropriate but many times it has been notices that there have been scams in medical bills as well.

What Should You Do?

While paying your medical bills pay attention to each and every detail. May be from any doctor or any hospital or retailer, tally your medical expenses with the bill finally provided to you. If you have any confusion regarding any medical term or treatment you are not familiar with, ask your doctor or medical insurer. You are not asked to suspect everyone around you, but it is very important for you to keep your eyes and ears open, after all it is your money!
