WELCOME TO OUR MODERN HOSPITAL WHERE IF YOU WANT TO KNOW A PRICE YOU CAN GO FUCK YOURSELF

Welcome to America General Hospital! Seems you have an oozing head injury there. Let’s check your insurance. Okay, quick “heads up” — ha! — Your plan may not cover everything today. What’s that? 

You want a reasonable price quote, upfront, for our services? 

Sorry, let me explain a hospital to you: 

we give you medical care, and then we charge whatever the hell we want for it. 

Honestly, there’s no telling what you’ll pay today. Maybe $700. Maybe $70,000. It’s a fun surprise! Maybe you’ll go to the ER for five minutes, get no treatment, then we’ll charge you $5,000 for an ice pack and a bandage. Then your insurance company will be like, “This is nuts. We’re not paying this.” Who knows how hard you’ll get screwed? You will, in three months. If you don’t like that, go fuck yourself and die.

DYI:  The Medical Industrial Complex is far more out of control than the Military Industrial Complex ever dreamed!  This industry pumps out far more in campaign bribes – ah I mean donations – than any industry.  Plus they have the main stream press in their hip pocket with their massive advertising budgets over riding any stories regarding these outrageous pricing scams.  Medical care consumes 21% of GDP thus impoverishing so many of our citizens who have had to file bankruptcy stripping them of wealth that took a lifetime to acquire.  These companies are in criminal violation of the Robinson-Patman, Clayton and the Sherman Anti-Trust Acts.  If the Federal Attorney General and/or State Attorney Generals through their consumer protection laws enforced these laws prices would easily drop by 75% plus.  That is not a typo.

Don’t believe me??? Go to the Surgery Center of Oklahoma web site who are competitive and don’t play any of these pricing scams.  They tell you right up front the cost [posted on their web site] and it is all in pricing.  The surgeon preforms the surgery but finds additional needed work.  Do you pay it?  NO!  They eat it.  Get an infection after the surgery.  Again do you pay for that additional expense.  NO!  They eat it!  Consequently their infection rate is 1/20 of the national average.

When our next downturn arrives I would not be surprised if 10 to 15 percent of our population becomes homeless all brought to you by an out of control military, bankers, and health care chewing up massive costs all borne by our citizens.
