Last month my father bumped his arm and tore the skin.
It wasn't serious, but he was upset and insisted he needed to see a doctor. I thought he just needed to put a band-aid on it, but he's 92 years old and has some cognitive issues, so I indulged him.
We went to the clinic, and as I expected they put a band-aid on his arm and assured him that everything would be all right.
Today we got the bill. His copay was $35, and they billed the insurance company $655.
$655. To put a band-aid on an arm.
That's bullshit.
I couldn't agree more.
