It should all be coded as to what procedures you had done. Example: Instead of saying "lung x-ray $500" it would say something like "billing code: 34ds3 $500"

Depends on the hospitals billing codes. I have received some bills that showed an itemized list of everything that was used but not the actual diagnosis or treatment. Now the insurance company will have a statement of what you were treated for.

In my case it did.
The insurance company has to know what its paying for, to see if what you are doing is even covered. Or if they want to deny the claim.
Around here even if its on the insurance they will send bills to your house, often months after your care. Or at bare minimum an invoice of what charges were/were to be paid by the insurance company.

It could. Mostly what shows up on the bills is a detail of services. For instance if you needed a shot of antibiotics the name of the drug would appear. Along with a diagnosis code. Best to just fess up to your parents as to what you went there for. They might be more understanding than you give them credit for.

I don't think they will get any clue.
Just make sure you pay the bill on this one, babe. If you shouldn't have done it, then don't stiff your parents with the bill too.
Family doctors and clinics charge reasonable prices, unlike emergency rooms that are over-worked with deadbeats who don't want to take the time for regular checkups, and people who are dodging last night's indiscretions...

i was in your situation once when i was younger. the lady asked me if i wanted to have it show up on the bill or not but i was going to ask her to not put it on there anyway cuz of the whole patient confidentiality stuff.
but ya know, i don't think your dad would like all this

no, it may have what medications you were given if any on the bill. Some Hospitals itemize the bill according to charges,but I have never seen one with the diagonsjis on it.

the common co-charge is approximately $25-$one hundred consistent with emergency room bypass to. this is, in case you have coverage. in case you do not have scientific coverage, from what i've got been informed, it ought to fee approximately $3 hundred-$500.

What you went there for may or may not, but what services they gave you certainly will, and most of the time your parents can figure out the reason from that.

It should not show your diagnosis or symptoms. Unless you are a minor they shouldn't even be able to access your medical records.
