Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kathy did not enter into a contract with the hospital, nor did she request their services. However, she received and benefitted from the services. Under a quasi-contract, the hospital can recover the reasonable value of the services provided to Kathy, even if there was no explicit agreement to pay for them. This is also known as a "contract implied in law."
