Just got a call from the billing department of the hospital with a
*Surgery Estimate*
$38,603 paid by insurance
$2,613 is my responsibility.
It could be way worse. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@LowEndMuse That's a lot better than what it could have been for sure. 🧡 I hate that you have to pay for any part of a surgery that's badly needed though.
@Halcyon Me being on Medicare is probably the only reason it's reasonable tbh.👍🏻
@Halcyon They're like.... Oh, you're already super fucking poor! 😂
@LowEndMuse
*customer puts bottle of water on the counter*
Store keeper: That'll be $27,350.
Customer: What??!!
Keeper: Do you have a store club card?
Customer: Yes
Keeper: Oh, then that'll be only $1,250
This is American healthcare
@Bobbelieu Yeah, that describes it quite nicely. 👍🏻
@LowEndMuse
That’s for damn sure.
