I was able to talk to the health service folks when I received a bill and I thought it was not accurate. Because my kiddo signed the “general” release, they were able to talk to me about the bill. They would NOT talk to me about the specific treatment (actually I didn’t ask because I didn’t need to know).

When my daughter was admitted to a hospital, she had to list EVERY single person we thought might need to talk to the doctors (we were 3000 miles away) including us. We sent her a lengthy list on her smart phone and she listed everyone. We just didn’t really know who was going to be able to get there quickly. If she hadn’t specifically named someone, the medical staff would not have talked to them. Also, in the end a family relative stayed with her in the hospital. The hospital would NOT have allowed that without her consent first.
