Reminds me how they once tried to bill a man for a C-section – this was on 7-on your side some time ago. The guy tried calling them, saying “I am a man”, but they refused to listen and then sent the bill to a collection agency. He had to call ABC to sort it out. Turns out to be mistaken identity – what a surprise. Do these people in billing know that science hasn’t yet found a way to make men pregnant.

As much as I hate lawsuits I think the guy should’ve sued them for doing a C-section on a man.
