Medicare paid their portion and your Insurance may have paid some portion, but you can be assured, if you spent 2 days in the hospital, the hospital was paid at least $5000, probably more.

The hospital never would have kept you there, if they weren't going to be paid for the majority of the bill.

They may be only looking at the Medicare Part B charges (that is the physician's fees...)
