The reimbursement plight

A sympathetic lawyer writes after receiving his hospital bill:

…I feel like I’m stealing from this doctor and the surgical center….I’m an in-house lawyer, so I make decent money. And that’s probably why I feel so horrible about this situation. When I was in private practice, I never would have agreed to take such a low amount of money on that bill.
