That possibility alone would be enough motivation, should it ever be needed, for my wife and I to avoid the Villages Hospital ER unless there were absolutely no other choice.
The Villages Hospital is not associated with the Villages Health, where the "billing discrepancy" happened. That is a common misconception. Avoiding the ER there may be prudent for other reasons but that one is not one of them.
