He also proposes legal reforms that can reduce the medical debt crisis in the US and other parts of the world. Hertz advises individuals to ask about the cost of procedures and document what they are told. They should not pay the first bill they receive, as it may not be accurate, and they should ask if the bill has gone to their insurer. Hertz also recommends keeping open lines of communication with the provider, opening a payment plan, and seeking an advocate to help with medical bills. He stresses that the worst problems with medical debt, including lawsuits, bankruptcies, and legal issues, often result from ignoring the provider's bills and letting them sit for months. Finally, he reveals that doctors and hospitals collect less than 15% of their overdue bills, so they may be willing to accept payment plans.
