[QUOTE="slsh, post: 405994, member: 8"] This is the kind of stuff that really irks me. Thank goodness for insurance, but I cannot help but pity the folks who are uninsured. I think the costs are jacked up so that hospitals can stay afloat when they give these ridiculous negotiated rates to insurance companies. The people who can least afford to pay are the ones who pay the most. I just got an EOB for Boo's g-tubes (actual device in his stomach he's fed thru). The "price" for each one is over a grand. Negotiated rate? $50. What's really insane is if I were uninsured, they'd still charge me a grand - but I can order the exact same thing off Amazon for $180. It's all funny money. [/QUOTE]
