Guess how much my surgeon's office wanted to charge my insurance?

$42,000 for my surgery!!!!!!!! My insurance had contracted about $12,000 which makes a heck of a lot more sense! How can hospitals get away with charging so much? Just one of the many things wrong with medical care in this country!

So probably none of you know about specialized hearing devices but I have a titanium bolt 4mm in my skull. Fun the reason for this is it attaches to a sound processor that allows me to hear like a super human. But for the bolt and the processor combined it’s 14,000 that doesn’t count or fee dr fee anesthesia which honestly they should have just numbed my skull cus I was awake for half of it anyway
I'm guessing you have a baha? I'm a sign language interpreter and know a few students that have them.
