Don't confuse them. EOB is informational; bill is what you actually pay.
How to read your Explanation of Benefits (EOB)
Your EOB is the statement your plan sends after processing a claim. Here's what every column means.
My EOB shows I owe money — what does it mean?
Several reasons you might owe — and some are appealable.
Secondary insurance EOB — what does it mean?
When you have two plans, both send EOBs. Read them in the right order.
There's a denial on my EOB — what do I do?
Diagnose the CARC code, then either appeal or accept based on whether the code is appealable.
