The US system is pretty bonkers, but patients don’t bill Medicaid, providers (and maybe insurance companies?) do. The patient generally has NO IDEA what the provider is billing for; I’ve never seen diagnosis or Current Procedural Terminology codes for in-network doctor visits.

(The immiseration is the point, IMO. The cruelty is just a fun bonus.)
