possibly a title of-
Medical Billing and Related topics
dealing with doctors office, bills, accounting, collections, etc

Jo, I agree that a forum like this could be as important as the Workman's Comp & Social Security sections, a natural for the same area.

I would suggest
Dealing with Medical Beaurocracy
- your records, insurance, billings & more...

Covering how to talk to your insurance company, hospital billing departments, doctors. Advocating for you child or parent. How your pharmacist can hep you. Your legal rights.

These are issues that are regularly dealt with and we had a particularly good (and unique) collection of help on bipolar at OBT (if it ever gets reloaded) that I would happily import over here.
