I was advised by friends when I left to take every thing in the room that was not attached as one got charged for everything.

True, but that's not something that auditing would fix. It's a different problem. Auditing looks for fraudulent charges. Hospitals charge for those things because they are authorized by Medicare to do so. If you want to stop it, change the policy so that they are no longer on the lists of items that are compensated. Auditing would fix the pitcher problem only if the hospital charged for a pitcher but didn't actually provide one. As long as pitchers are covered expenses and they provide the pitcher, then Medicare will pay for the pitcher. It would be foolish of the hospital to miss such an easy revenue opportunity.
