I don't know if I got ripped off or not, I fractured my elbow which required pins and a rod. At the time I was not in a position to question the Dr or the hospital cost. The link you provided looks like these cost are what the physicians charge, does this cover hospital, anesthesiologist, etc?

My main point was your $20k was not a lot of money for a major medical issue. If you get cancer, if the procedure to remove the cancer doesn't take up the $20K one chemo treatment would take the rest. I wish I was in a position that I could go without insurance and pay as I go, unfortunately, I am not willing to take that risk. I wish you and your family the best of health
