Another fucked up story about healthcare was when I had to have my appendix removed like a year and a half ago. I figured it would cost me the $35 copay for emergency room visits. It wound up costing me like $1000 out of pocket and about $10,000 was charged to my insurance.
I'm no doctor, but I know that removing an appendix is not $10,000 worth of work. I can remove and replace an entire fucking engine in a car for half that and that takes about 8 hours to do.
