...appointment at the hospital? I have a financial evaluation appointment at the hospital to see how much I can pay for my hospital bill (I got injured with no health insurance), the hospital bill came out to $5,000. I make $1,000 p/month almost minimum wage in Florida, and I have a lot of expenses. I want to set up a payment schedule with the hospital where I can pay about $20 p/month. I have a bank account with some savings (roughly $5,000), will I be forced to pay the hospital bill in one lump sum with the money from my bank account or will they let me set up a payment schedule? Do I have to tell them that I even have some savings in a bank account?

P.S. When you set up a payment schedule, do they charge interest on that?

Any advice would be appreciated.
