I just got my bill from Cottage Hospital. Pneumonia isn't cheap. Well, it isn't cheap if your jackass physician tells you it's the flu so you sit at home while the infection bones your lungs hard. If you do that before you go to the hospital it costs about $450,000. This bill from Cottage Hospital alone is for $423,704.03. No worries - my share is $286.22. Thanks, Blue Cross of California. But that's not the rad part. So, I'm reading through the lines on this bill and I stop at the item marked 'PHARMACY'. The number next to it is $227,735.48. That is truly a lot of drugs.
Impressive, no?
