I don't see how the hospital formed a contract that she would pay them when she was unconscious and incapable of agreeing to anything.

And, it is very interesting that her insurance company paid the hospital everything it would have had it been in their network. So, one price for insurance companies but another for people?

The medical industry is a huge racket. Almost every time what the insurance pays is different than what you would without insurance. IE, you get SCREWED

That's nothing new, and can't be attributed to Obamacare.

Go compare what the fedgov (aka Medicare) pays compared to "people".

Exactly. Go to a doctor or dentist and get the price for a procedure stating that you have no insurance. Then, go to the same doctor or dentist and get the price for in network and out of network.
