Have you ever wondered why it costs tens of thousands of dollars for a hysterectomy with hospital stay but $120 to spay your dog...who goes home hours later and is totally healed and happy in a week?

The insurance company wasn’t the problem, they paid for everything - I was griping about the attempted fraud by the hospital.

I called the insurance company and the state medical board

It eventually went away.

The overinflation is probably due to so many uninsured or people who won’t pay. Sucks for the rest of us.

Just like medical scooters.
