The reason for this is that 80% of medical bills from hospitals and providers contain errors. These errors cause insurance companies to deny medical claims at a rate of 500,000 times a day. Let EMC review your medical bills before you pay them to assure that you don't pay more than you rightfully owe. Join with ASO Today!
