Have AI itemize a medical bill you can't make sense of

Turn the bill's line items into a table and flag duplicates or unclear charges, then ask the provider or insurer yourself. AI only analyzes; it doesn't negotiate for you.

Start step 1 ↓

The problem

A long medical or out-of-pocket bill full of codes and abbreviations. You want to know what each item is, whether anything was charged twice and what insurance should cover, but you don't know where to start asking.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Start with an itemized table

    Copy the prompt below and replace the examples with your own details before sending.

    Prompt
  2. 2

    Have it draft questions for the provider

    Questions only, no accusations. For example: "Are items 12 and 15 the same service?"

  3. 3

    Call or write to them yourself

    Take the table to the provider's billing office or your insurer. How you pay and whether you dispute anything is your decision.
