Nobody kidney wants to work anymore

I do have government funded insurance so I will pay less than $200. Which I will only be able to afford if I pass Go.

Itemized hospital bill from the emergency room in the US. Listed are various services including IV, medications, and imaging. The costs range from $5 for an antinausea tablet to $500 for a pregnancy test and almost $7000 for a CT scan.

    New Zealand, similar story; my wife has been in hospital 3 times in the last 5 years - twice needing surgery - totalling about 20 days in hospital. The only out of pocket expenses were parking and getting food delivered for me because I’m picky and didn’t want what they had in the cafeteria.
