And they cry all the way to the bank. I had a kidney stone and went to the ER for 1.5 hours. So far I have been out of pocket almost $3,000. $507 was from the hospital for a medical exam and then I get another bill for $1,018 from some PA for “services rendered”. $1,500 for 1.5 hours? Really?
This was two months ago and I’m still getting bills! I think they sent them until you balk.

I hear you. Same here, kidney stone. 1500 to the Lithotripsy place to walk in the front door, 2000 to the anesthetist, and a whopping 6000 to have my urologist stand there and joke to the nurses for about 2 hrs.
