    Hey. I went to the ER and didn’t have to pay a dime of the near $100k that I was billed. This is primarily because I was hit by an SUV and they were ruled completely at fault. I did have to setup a payment plan for the $5k that the US hospital system charged for my wife spraining her ankle two weeks before or wedding. Yeah. That was fun. Literally cost more than we could afford for the wedding.

    Fuck this privatized, for-profit system.
