    The answer to this question is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

    Explanation:

    Based on the scenario displayed above Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

    A Quasi contract is a contract that is created by a court order, not by an agreement made by the parties to the contract. For example, quasi contracts are created by the court when no official agreement exists between the parties, in disputes over payments for goods or services

    In this case there has not been an official agreement between Kathy and the hospital, However she has to pay the bill presented to her based on Quasi contract which is created to prevent an individual to be unjustly enriched or from benefiting from the situation when he/she does not deserve to do so.

    Hence the answer is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.
