Griffi The Dancing Cockatoo

The health system in this country is so broken. Let me give you my personal example.

My spine surgery is coming up and the hospital called me for pre-register. They proceed to get all my my info and then say ok well your payment due today is 6k....... I was like wait what?

She said yes how yould you like to pay for that? I was like ummm.... I can't? Who has 6k in their bank account to just "pay" a copay?

She proceeded to tell me ok well we have payment plans. I was like ok so how much is the total bill?

Her answer 70k! I was like wait is that total for everything? NOPE the surgeon and the anesthesia people bill me separately.....

Ok wait a minute.... let me do this micky mouse math..... 1 F'n night in the hospital is 70 THOUSAND DOLLARS??????!!!!! AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANYTHING BUT JUST THE HOSPITAL? Yup....

what in the hell.... I just want to throw up with our health care system.
