  Check several lines of an itemized bill at once. Use when someone reads out or pastes several lines from an itemized bill, for example "my ER bill has 99284 for $2,500, 85025 twice for $120 and 36415 three times, does anything look off?". Pass the lines as code, optional x and units, then the amount. Returns each line against Medicare's rate, totals, and questions_to_ask: repeated codes, units above Medicare's automated daily limit, the highest visit levels, hospital clinic facility fees and charges far above what providers typically bill. Lines of a hospital bill (any bill with an ER visit on it, or setting=facility) are compared with Medicare's hospital outpatient rate plus the doctor's part; each such line says compared_with.
