hospital bills
Healthcare payment demands
Hospital bills are the itemized charges for medical care received at a hospital—covering procedures, room stays, medications, and services.
In American English especially, the term carries connotations of financial burden and complexity: We're still paying off the hospital bills from my surgery.
The plural form emphasizes the accumulation of costs that can follow serious illness or injury.
