ScrubMyBill turns hospital price files into a bill-checking tool

Field notes

The workflow starts with a clear photo, PDF, or CSV of an itemized bill, then checks each readable code and amount against the hospital’s published price file. The page identifies three kinds of flags: amounts above the posted price, possible duplicates, and charges without a code. Its example uses emergency-department code 99284, comparing $4,125.00 with a posted $2,899.00 charge. Summary bills are explicitly excluded because they lack line-level codes and amounts.
