Question

A good answer

It cannot be read from what is saved. The picture of the EOB is cut off on the right, where the "amount you may owe" column is: it shows $2,927.50 billed and $1,350.50 paid by the plan, but not the family's share. The only amount saved is the $250 ER copay receipt of September 9, 2023. A good answer says this, does not work a figure out from billed minus paid, and asks for a better copy of the EOB or for the hospital bill.

Traps it covers

only_in_file Hard file, a field cut off: the EOB for Eli's 2023 ER visit was photographed with its right edge out of frame, and the right edge is the "amount you may owe" column. The truth is $638.00 in all ($250 copay paid at the visit plus $388 coinsurance billed later). Neither figure is anywhere in the account; only the $250 copay receipt is. The right answer is that it cannot be read, with a request for a better copy.
