holy CRAP!

so i received all of the claim info from the insurance company in the mail today..

you know, something needs to be done about the insane costs of medical treatment! what if i didn't have insurance? couldn't afford this? yes, they are legally obligated to still do it.. but still. there goes my credit! so here's the rundown of the claims..

• grand strand regional medical center (including ER and surgery) : $19,907.50 (!!!!!! WTF?)
• anesthesiologist : $500
• radiologist : $30
• pathologist : $12.30
• strand orthopedics: $3700.00
  

seriously.. almost 20 grand???? that is INSANE! i didn't even stay overnight in the hospital!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so far the grand total comes out to $24,149.80 .. all from the month of may! that doesn't even count my appointment last week to get the stitches taken out/hard cast put on.. or the appointment next month to get the hard cast off, etc. more xrays will be involved, etc.

this is absolutely crazy.. something needs to be done about astronomical medical costs in this country! well, in my opinion anyways..
