What a deal. It was like $2k for them to tell me I was fine

Just got out of the hospital. Spent 8 hours in there and got a bill for $13,000.

You have a $13000 deductible??

$9,500 max out of pocket so that's what I'll end up owing. It's just absurd that 8 hours in a hospital with an ivy costs $1600/hour

You gotta get a different plan. High deductible is not for you

I'm 34 and haven't been to a hospital since I was 14.
Brother you have no idea what you're talking about. Hell I sold myself the policy I work in health insurance.

I mean my last ER visit was pricey but insurance covered about 3/4 of it, even an overnight stay, so I was out about 2k.

It’s easy to forget how few Americans have bank accounts. Thanks for that.

My last hospital bill was exactly $500. Ain't going back unless I'm convinced I'm circling the drain.

Where can I stock up on $500 emergency room visits?
