Everyone cries how expensive insurance is.

Let me tell you. My own sister came into our ER on Chirstmas Eve. She’s from out of town. It turned out to be a scare.

I had no idea how much her four hour visit cost until she called me pissed.

$7,000. Yeah.

With her insurance, she has to pay $1,200. Without. What are we talking about. That just boggles my mind.

I don’t get involved in the business end of things, but now I have to wonder what good we really do and when someone comes in without insurance, I have to rethink my usual mild contempt.

We can afford to treat him. Just look at what we bilked out of my sisiter.
