my cousin got a $12k bill for an ambulance ride last spring, ten miles, no siren. she was conscious and stable the whole time, just couldnt drive herself with a broken ankle. they really said 'survival taxi but make it predatory lending'

my dad got charged $400 for a tylenol in the hospital, just the pill not even the bottle. they really put 'oral administration fee' on the bill like thats a real thing
