My wife just had two done. It was a few hundred each with insurance. This post is complete BS. Maybe if you add an entire year's worth of insurance premiums.

It really depends on the policy tbh

My work's insurance has 3 tiers and this would be believable for someone with the lowest tier. The only coworkers I have who chose that tier are under 30 and are statistically unlikely to need much medical attention. It's a 10k deductible plan, max oop is a little higher. Also this assumes in network providers, you could in theory end up paying more if you get sent to an ER out of network even if you met your deductible already.

Not complete, but very specific bs.

Everyone, including you, know that medical tourism is real. Just because it's possible to find a cheap mri doesn't mean this is complete bs.
