How To Not Pay Your Medical Bills! Actually, That’s Easy. This Is How I Paid A Lot Less.

— By Joel Stein | February 20, 2025 | Wall Street Journal (WSJ)

Illustration: Ryan Johnson

As you probably recall, I had a mole removed about a year ago. As fresh as this is in all of our memories, a year is a fair bit of time, so I was surprised to get a bill in the mail for $604.80 from a company called DermTech. Apparently, much like wedding gifts, you have a year to send someone a medical bill.

And like a wedding gift, this bill included a friendly note: “Thank you for selecting DermTech for your healthcare needs.” This wasn’t exactly true since, before this bill arrived, I had never heard of DermTech. There was no point in my mole removal process where I said, “Hey doc, if you wind up putting a small sticker on my back to test this mole for basal cell carcinoma, make sure that sticker is from DermTech and not those clowns at DermaSensor or Fujirebio.”

Had this bill been for anything besides health care, I would have been far more surprised. If a restaurant supply company mailed me an invoice, explaining that they had encountered some extra expenses for a burger I ate at a restaurant a year ago, and now I owed them $604.80, I’d be confused. Especially if that restaurant didn’t have prices on its menu.

Luckily, I’d been through this unexpected, unexplained medical bill situation before, due to the fact that I’m an American. So I knew that I did not need to review the specifics. Such as the $1,485 original charge, which my insurance company had paid/adjusted by $880.20, thereby reducing the cost of the testing sticker to $604.80.

I knew that these were completely made-up numbers. My high school friend is the vice president of data analytics at a huge hospital. She’s assured me that she does not make up numbers. She determines prices using data and analytics and vice presidency. Yet, by the time bills go through insurance companies or government agencies and get to patients, they are indeed totally made up.

The American healthcare system is not the only marketplace with made-up numbers. There are also Middle Eastern bazaars, used car lots and Pentagon budgets. And wherever there are made-up numbers, you can bargain.

I knew I could do well in a negotiation because DermTech, despite advancing sticker technology more than anyone since the engineers at Scratch and Sniff, is desperate. When you Google “DermTech,” the first result in the “People also ask” section is “Whatever happened to DermTech?” The answer Google provides is “DermTech has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and laid off 20% of its staff.” When a company can’t make money on $1,485 stickers, there are definitely holes on the business side you can exploit.

I also had leverage because I knew that a huge portion of people don’t pay their medical bills, causing companies such as DermTech to sell these bills to collection agencies for pennies on the dollar. Plus, a 2023 law prevents medical debts of less than $500 from even showing up on your credit reports.

I called the number on the bill. I used a friendly voice to tell the friendly woman on the phone that I’d like to pay my bill right now, but I’d like to pay a lot less. I did not tell the woman that the bill was unfair or that I didn’t have the money or that a year is a long time to wait to charge someone for a sticker. I simply offered to pay less.

She immediately offered me a “20% prompt payment discount.” Which would reduce my $604.80 bill to $947.84. This seemed like the kind of faulty math that would explain DermTech’s Chapter 11 problems.

Then the friendly woman typed furiously and discovered that another DermTech bill was coming in a few weeks for about $580. This was for a second sticker I’d also used a year ago, one that was apparently about $24.80 crappier than the first sticker.

I told her I’d pay both bills right now for a much bigger discount than 20%. She offered me 50% off. I offered her $200 for both stickers. She said she’d check with the manager and get back to me. I had the feeling I was going to drive out of there with a brand new 1964 Coupe DeVille. She called back and said DermTech would accept $300 for the entire $1,184.80 bill.

Was I happy about paying $300 for stickers from a year ago that I never asked for? Extremely. Because there’s nothing more exciting than getting a great deal. It felt even better than finding out I didn’t have skin cancer.

A couple of weeks later, I called DermTech to tell them I was writing about my experience and wanted to find out if I could have done even better than $300. Loren Clarke, the company’s chief medical officer called me right back. He said the new, leaner, privately owned DermTech couldn’t legally talk about the large, bankrupt DermTech, even though they had the same staff and used the same stickers. I promised never to talk about old DermTech, even at home with my child.

Clarke was more upset about my bill than I was, and not because I had screwed him out of $884.80. “The billing team doesn’t want to take people’s money. They want the patients’ insurance to pay for it. I’m glad they were willing to work with you so easily,” he said. His challenge is that if insurance companies find out DermTech is cutting patients’ bills, they’ll claim they violated their contract and stop paying them. They’ll start to wonder if that sticker is as expensive as they claim.

The $1,184.80 wasn’t for the stickers, Clarke explained. It was for the four lab technicians who spent two days removing skin cells from stickers, extracting the RNA, converting it to DNA, amplifying the results by polymerase chain reaction and going to a therapist about being unable to explain what they do for a living without boring everyone. And the sticker technology was much cheaper, more accurate, and less painful than the usual practice, a biopsy. Much like it is easier to use a sticker than to scratch and sniff an actual skunk.

The DermTech billing department was indeed empowered to “find whatever they can to work with you.” But my negotiating technique, Clarke said, wasn’t perfect. “If you had called and were irate, they can sometimes reverse the claim and write it off. If someone is really upset with us, we want to take care of that.”

Clarke suggests that patients save their angry calls for the huge corporations in no danger of filing for Chapter 11, the ones who don’t even provide medical services: health insurance companies. I told him that while I was tempted by the prospect of spending three hours being transferred around Blue Shield and then ignored, it didn’t sound nearly as satisfying as screaming at his billing department.

Now that I know all of this, at my checkup next year, I’m going to ask for a whole lot of stickers.

Get Sample PDF Here @ https://www.theinsightpartners.com/sample/TIPRE00018116/

During the skin biopsy procedure, doctor cuts and removes a small part from skin for the test. Skin biopsy is performed to determine skin cancer, infection or other skin conditions. The skin samples are collected by different types of biopsies such as punch, excisional, incisional, and shave biopsy.

These types of biopsies are performed for melanoma skin cancer. And in cases of non-melanoma, biopsy is often the only test done to diagnose the stage or the extension of the cancer as non-melanoma skin cancer rarely spreads. Similar, to other mean of screening biopsy is equally important to diagnose a skin cancer type. The increasing awareness and incidences of skin cancer are likely to drive the market during the forecast period.

Dermatoscopy held the second largest market share for the skin cancer diagnostics market. Dermatoscopy is the primary test for skin cancer. It increases the sensitivity for detecting skin cancer, decreases the number of benign lesions biopsied for each malignant diagnosis, and enables the diagnosis of thinner melanomas compared with naked eye examination. In addition, dermatoscopy is cost effective, which is leading to decreased number of excised benign lesions. Dermatoscope are available in several different lightweight models, and battery-operated hand-held devices. Furthermore, the advancements in the technology are enabling players to launch upgraded versions of their existing dermatoscopes and new dermatoscopes in the market. Thus, the technical development is another leading factor for increasing demand for dermatoscpes, which is vitally contributing to the growth of market.

Hot Stocks To Invest In Right Now? 4 Health Care Stocks To Watch

Should Investors Buy These Health Care Stocks Before May 2021?

We are still seeing COVID-19 cases rising around the globe despite having vaccines rolled out globally. This has undoubtedly allowed health care stocks to remain in the limelight. So it’s likely that investors would shift their focus back to the health care industry in the stock market. For investors, the logic is quite simple when it comes to investing in the health care industry. Everybody will eventually need health care, regardless of whether there is a pandemic or not. Whether it is digital health care or advancements in biotech, investors still stand to make huge gains nonetheless.

We need to look no further than Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) and AstraZeneca (NASDAQ: AZN) for prime examples to illustrate the demand for health care. Although there are reports of side effects in relation to their vaccines, many countries globally are resuming the administration. This comes after many health regulators determined that the benefits would far outweigh the risks.

A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calculated how many lives the shot could save in the next six months. According to the CDC’s model, continuing to administer the J&J vaccine at just half the rate at which it was used in early April could prevent 580 to 1,400 coronavirus deaths. So, it’s safe to assume that health care has always been important and will likely still be in focus for the foreseeable future. Now let’s look at some of the top health care stocks in the stock market now.

Top Health Care Stocks To Watch Now

DermTech Inc (NASDAQ: DMTK)

Brooklyn Immunotherapeutics Inc (NYSE: BTX)

Novavax, Inc (NASDAQ: NVAX)

Moderna Inc (NASDAQ: MRNA)

DermTech Inc

First, we have a dermatology company that focuses on skin cancer, DermTech. The company develops products that facilitate the early detection of skin cancers and customize drug treatments. DermTech aims to transform dermatology by delivering highly accurate, objective information to physicians. The company stock first surged back in December 2020 and has seen significant gains over the past six months, boasting over 270% gains. This was largely due to investors responding favorably to the results from its Pigmented Lesion Assay (PLA), a non-invasive melanoma “rule-out” test. The study confirmed that PLA can eliminate melanoma with a 99% negative predictive value.

📷

Last week, the company announced its next-generation test for the enhanced early detection of melanoma, DermTech PLAplus. It delivers objective and actionable information to guide clinical management decisions for skin lesions that are suspected to be melanoma. Hence, allowing clinicians to detect skin cancers such as melanoma at an earlier stage, which leads to a higher cure rate. DMTK stock rose around 10% this week.

This could be due to investors responding to the speculation that Cigna (NYSE: CI) will be covering the company’s PLA early detection test for melanoma. Should this test turn out to be consistently effective, the company could be looking at considerable upside. Could this make DMTK stock worth watching now?

Brooklyn Immunotherapeutics Inc

Next up, we have Brooklyn Immunotherapeutics. The company is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on cytokine-based therapies in treating patients with cancer. Brooklyn is developing IRX-2, a cytokine-based therapy, to treat patients with head and neck cancer. As some of you may be aware, the company stock has doubled in price over the past week. BTX stock skyrocketed over 51% on Tuesday, seemingly on the news of a new appointment.

📷

In particular, the company has appointed Matthew During, M.D., Ph.D. to the company’s Scientific Advisory Board. He was a pioneer in the use of viral vectors for neurological disorders. Earlier in April, the company paid $1 million towards the acquisition of a license for Factor Bioscience’s and Novellus’ mRNA Gene Editing and Cell Therapies technology. This would allow Brooklyn to utilize an extensively patented process to seek and develop gene-edited compounds using mRNA. So why is this big?

Because preclinical data suggest it to be more efficient, non-immunogenic and non-mutagenic, for treatment of several solid tumors as well as other inherited disorders. Just as many other health care stocks, any potential breakthrough would be colossal for the company. So could BTX stock be the next big health care stock?

Cloudflare (NET) Vs Fastly (FSLY): Which Cloud Stock Is A Better Buy Ahead Of Earnings?

Novavax, Inc

Novavax, Inc. is a clinical-stage vaccine company that focuses on the discovery, development, and commercialization of recombinant nanoparticle vaccines and adjuvants. With the onset of the global pandemic last year, the company has also ventured into making COVID-19 vaccines. Despite not having any product in the market yet and facing delays in production, it is still expected to be one of the leading vaccine candidates. The company’s vaccine has proven to be just as potent as other vaccine frontrunners. On Tuesday, President Joe Biden hinted that Novavax’s vaccine may be nearing authorization in the U.S.

📷

Furthermore, there was news of Novavax and President Moon Jae-In of South Korea agreeing to expand its current partnership on local production of the new vaccine. South Korea’s SK Bioscience will be handling and producing the vaccine as early as June. Also, Novavax announced last week that its malaria vaccine candidate R21 showed an efficacy of 77%.

Although GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE: GSK) currently markets a malaria vaccine, its efficacy is only between 35% and 55%. Therefore, this would truly be a milestone in malaria prevention if R21 is ultimately approved. So, with what seems like endless opportunities ahead with Novavax, would you consider adding NVAX stock to your watch list?

[Read More] Trending Stocks To Buy Now? 4 FAANG Stocks In Focus

Moderna Inc

Last but not least, we have a leading vaccine company, Moderna. As most of you would know, the company is one of the first to receive the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its COVID-19 vaccine. Aside from creating a vaccine for the coronavirus, the company is also studying the prospects of creating mRNA-based personalized cancer vaccines and treatments for other rare diseases. Hence, the future of the company looks intact even post-COVID-19. The company stock has seen gains of over 250% over the past year.

📷

On Tuesday, Moderna announced that it is working towards a single shot for both COVID-19 and flu protection. The company hopes to use its mRNA-based technology to knock out several pathogenic birds with one stone. On the same day, DNA Script announced a partnership with Moderna to develop a prototype for rapid mobile manufacturing of vaccines and therapeutics.

The partnership will employ DNA Script’s novel enzymatic synthesis platform to power Moderna’s existing manufacturing technology for the rapid production of mRNA vaccines and therapeutics. The company is surely not taking anything for granted despite having great success over the past year. With that in mind, would MRNA stock make its way into your watchlist?

Melanoma skin cancer is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. Development of defective DNA due to exposure to the ultraviolet radiation from sunlight or tanning beds leads to develop melanoma skin cancer. This genetic defect triggers mutation in the cell structure resulting in rapid multiplication of cells forming a malignant tumor. These malignant tumors often originate at basal layer of epidermis which produces melanocyte type of pigment which makes most of melanoma skin cancer black or brown in color. As per skin cancer foundation, in 2018 around 178,560 cases of melanoma will be diagnosed in United States alone. Melanoma skin cancer is the least common type of skin cancer and it is curable if diagnosed early. Early melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing plays major role future treatment regimen and possible cure for the patient.

Rising incidence of melanoma skin cancer is expected to fuel the melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market. The increasing exposure to the ultraviolet radiation in industries, in sunlight or in other places ultimately leading to rise in melanoma skin cancer cases driving the growth of melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market. Increasing cases of genetic mutation due to various environmental (UV rays) as well as habit related factors leading to develop melanoma skin cancer ultimately fueling the melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market growth. Man-made sources such as tanning beds which are responsible increasing UV exposure in turn driving the growth of melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market. When melanoma skin cancer run in families, it increases the risk of inherited melanoma skin cancer hence driving the growth of melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market. Lack of widespread awareness for early diagnosis and symptoms related to melanoma skin cancer may impede the melanoma skin cancer diagnostic testing market growth.
