The hospital must send the final itemized bill to the TPA, who then audits every line item for policy compliance. This can take 4–6 hours on average.

Created by Manpreet Kaur (1 month ago) This happens when a patient chooses to leave the hospital before the doctor thinks it is safe. You must sign a waiver stating the hospital is not responsible for complications.
