In this unstable economy which is already at its knees due to the global financial crisis, it pays to pay closer scrutiny to your expenses, which include medical bills. As we all know, medical bills can be quite hefty, so here are two ways to help you keep you costs down without compromising your health.

1. Check your medical bills carefully.
You may not know it, but you could be being unintentionally (or worse, intentionally) charges for medical procedures you did not go through or for medicines that were not given to you. Although the hospital has a responsibility to bill you properly an accurately, mistakes can still occur, and it;s up to you to check that you’re not going to pay for the mistakes of someone.

2. Ask for generic medicines
Unless you’re REALLY sick and only designer drugs are available for you, try to ask you doctor to recommend generic drugs in your prescription.
