    We are given a sample size of 1800 hospital patients. The data for a year shows that 82.5% of the patients had an error on their medical bill, meaning:

    1800 * 0.825 = 1485 patients have errors on their medical bills.

    Given the confidence interval of 95% with an equivalent z value of 1.96, the number of patients who have medical errors on their medical bills is:

    1485 patients + - (considering the confidence interval, z value 1.96) use the z-test to arrive at the final answer.
