This is not a country, this is a money laundering scheme for big businesses pretending that charging someone to save their life isn’t ill gotten gains

Btw the info of the hospital that did this is as follows:

Legacy Emanuel Medical Center

Phone: 503-415-5600

Address: 2801 N. Gantenbein Ave. Portland, OR 97227

Would be a shame if they had to hear people were upset by this

    I knew a guy who died on a motorcycle and his widow was billed an exorbitant sum by the hospital for "lifesaving efforts". I don't know if he was an organ donor. I assumed that a hospital could bill you for any "work" they did, whether the patient was dead when they arrived or not.

    Are you sure that the bill is the result of him being an organ donor? Still fucked up either way.

    Also, does the lawyer work for her or for the hospital? If the lawyer worked for her then perhaps they helped her out by annulling the part of the bill that was for treatment rendered after the patient was proven to be dead.
