Not everyone has MINOR medical problems.
Gun shot wounds, stabbings, car accidents - all these are over #300 a visit. If we didn’t ALLOW ILLEGALS to be here, the amount would be lower. Some states are wanting ILLEGALS to VOTE.
No kidding.
Probably what the hospital recoups from the gov. The rest of the bill is added to the other paying patients.
That wouldn't even cover the triage nurse's assessment.
An x-ray would cost thousands. Then there is the separate bill from the hospitalist, radiologist, orthopedic Dr.
You couldn't get a stitch for $300.
