Wife was admitted to the ER, then had treatments, admitted for 2 days. On Medicare. Original bill was $63,000. Medicare approval and total payments appx $1200. We are 9n the hook for our Medicare deductible of $1300. So a total of $2500 for a hospital that billed $63,000. How can the individual know what is a reasonable cost and what is not?
Don’t go to hospitals. Die first. You’d be better off, probably. Eat well, take your chances.
