Academic question:
The Part B deductible this year is $240.
Let's say you visited a bunch of doctors in a very short period of time--maybe all in one day-- and, not having met your deductible, are charged and you pay each time.
The total charges exceed the deductible but each provider hasn't uploaded the charges yet; some take days to do so. (I'm assuming that somewhere on the provider's computer there's a list of whether the deductible has/hasn't been met)
Do you get a refund or is it 'tough luck'? Or is this a good time to not "pay when services are rendered"?
