There should be a limit on billing

I mean they should have to bill you within a certain time frame or forget it (Dad once took a phone call at his mom's for a bill for his brother's birth...21 years after the fact) In trying to figure out the weird amount the insurance paid an ambulance service (and I'm glad I called because they had tricks to potentially decrease the amount owed which they thought was EXCESSIVE and it was 640$ to go 3 miles).
I said something about being life flighted and not seeing that EOB. The agent was stunned. What are you talking about? She looks. THERE IS NO BILL. Now I'm not about to tell the company (not that I know who it is anyhow) but it's four months after the fact and they haven't even sent in a bill. After 6 months they shouldn't be allowed to. How can I budget for anything if I could have this potentially huge bill coming my way. I mean if one ambulance wanted that much to go 3 miles imagine what they want for a helicopter to go 100 miles.
We also found (finally) the GOOD estim unit. It shocks like a damn electric eel. It's strong enough to REHAB my sad quads. I am happy.
