A surcharge is more honest and up front way to charge a customer. Customers expect the sales tax to be itemized on their bill, why not specific taxes caused by Obamacare?

No problem there, as long as it is known upfront and not simply tacked onto the bill afterwards and comes as a rude surprise.
I really don’t know many places that tack on charges of normal overhead charges, though, save car rental charges.
Most of the times establishments like hotels do this for WIFI or parking but we all know it is simply an excuse to produce more profit.
