Hospitals are run by lawyers now. This is law 101.
> sue for 10 times what is fair
Explain this to a non-american, please?

the guy bought the hospital room, had a heart attack & new lungs, plus got his hearing tested while he was there.... oh...... and a $99 happy ending
Ethan Gray
like 5k/year
Camden Walker
>you'll get the same prices in other countries
Julian Young
American here. Health care system is bullshit. Room & Care is 428k? You kidding me?
Thomas Morales
what a fantastic way to increase efficiency and reduce transaction costs
David Watson
No you dont. They are more regulated elsewhere. There is nothing stopping a hospital from charging you 1mil dollars for a bandaid in the US.
Sebastian Myers
Nice chart. Check out the list of the cheapest countries ... yeah, I’d rather let my insurance pay for a US hospital than any of those. Your leaders fly to our country in their private jets because the quality of care in your country is shit. Google the Mayo Clinic airport.

this is the price of the average pediatrician visit in America, and the average american has one a year until they're 13 years of age. We're all multi-millionaires here. Anybody making less than 8 digits is a chump. Even our homeless frequently make 200 grand a year begging for scraps
