E.r. visit for possible broken foot. One x ray and 10 minutes on a bed...... 1700$ my insurance covered 1000$ my foot wasn't broken and there was no treatment other than the Dr saying " damn that's gonna hurt until the bruise heals" we can't have socialized medicine though because....uuuhhhh.... freedom.... and uhh... pull yourself up by your boot straps!....the American way......yeah.... freedom.... to beg for money from strangers to get your kid a new heart.

Hospitals charge between $2000 to $4000 day. Doctors are paid separately for each specialty. Operations also charged separately-the surgeon and anistheologist as well. Medications, surgical supplies. You are probably talking over $500,000 minimum.

I spent 2 nights in a hospital three and a half years ago. Just the cost of the room for the two nights was $48,000. My insurance company paid the majority of all of the billing but, it still cost me about $3000 out of my pocket.

You wouldn't even be allowed to come into the country. you are not material.

Beaucoup bucks. With insurance about 20% of billed. Without insurance a sliding scale would be applied based on your income. Medical bankruptcy would most likely be your fate. Some states have catastrophic pools to assist you.
