How can I negotiate with hospital who has lien on personal injury settlement when they say they wont discount!

How can I negotiate with hospital who has lien on personal injury settlement when they say they wont discount!
Question Details: I was hit by a woman and am recieving a small settlement. Hospital put a lien against her insurance company for FULL BALANCE ONLY and when I called to see if they would negotiate a lower amount they laughed and said, No way. They dont lower the bill for a liability accident and want the full balance paid. I figure that is horrid business ethics when Point A. Someone goes into a hospital with insurace and pays and the insurace company NEVER pays full balance ONLY A PERCENTAGE! and Point B. Someone goes into the hospital without any insurance and they ALWAYS NEGOTIATE A LOWER BILL FOR THEM> So WITH or WITHOUT insurace they will lower the bill, but because they want their greedy little hands on ALL THE money they file a lien and wont lower the bill!! ANY HELP OUT THERE ON HOW TO NEGOTIATE GRATEFULLY ACCEPTED!!!

Is there a danger of Asbestos particles from a car getting in to the air intake / therefore interior cabin ?

I cannot find any study of research that shows such a problem or risk but given the size of the particles and the nature of vehicles being used in disruptive ways it appears to be a likelihood.

Has anyone had skin cancer while pregnant or known somebody who did?

I am 13 weeks pregnant and just got the test results back from a mole I had removed from my stomach—it shows early cancer. I am seeing the doctor on Monday, but am of course freaking out a bit in the meantime. Anybody have any information? Thanks.
I don’t know what kind of skin cancer it is yet.
Thanks for sharing your experience…I have had a hard time finding anyone in a similar situation. Best of luck with your pregnancy :)
Andrea, thanks to you too :)

My puppy ate a bunch of insulation. Is he going to get stomach cancer or something now?

I called animal emergency and they said to just watch him for signs that it caused an obstruction which would be serious. Otherwise it may cause an upset stomich or diarrhea.

How can a dr diagnos cancer just by seeing tumors? ?

My mother in law went in for surgery yesterday and the doctor found tumors in her stomach. He then told my father in law (then her once she recovered) that she has stomach cancer. I’m looking for all the hope in the world, so what are the chances that she will be ok? She goes in next week for surgery to remove the tumors and chemotherapy. She is like my 2nd mother, so my husband and I are devistated, not to mention other family members. Also, my kids love her too much to lose her.

How do you get Liver cancer? Do you itch when you have liver cancer? Is there a chance you can still survive?

Today we got a call from the Dr and he said my uncle has Liver Cancer. We don’t really have much information how or anything but he had signs such as diary, nausea, weight lost, itching, restlessness and even yellow in his eyes. I was woundering if this is liver cancer. Do you itch when you have liver cancer? Is it to late to cure?
The Dr said his not sure yet his still doing tests but he thinks its liver cancer.
