I just got the bill for my knee surgery. Actually, it's not that bad, or at least as much as I thought it would be. The total was $19,455.30.
If you are interested, this includes several charges, including, but not limited to:
Operating Room Services = $12,315
Anesthesia = $1,454
Recovery Room = $4,743 (This seemed really high to me, but I slept through most of it.)
And $104 for "Physical therapy" -- a person who spent about 10 minutes teaching me to use crutches.
We will have a special offering Sunday. I expect all of you to "reach in them jeans and pull out them greens."
What do people do without insurance? A good blog post itself.

Wow. Glad I'll be out of town on Sunday ;o)
Very glad you have insurance....
Good thing it doesn't work like car insurance where your rates go up with big claims. "Sorry, but your monthly health insurance is now $7,000 because of your recent claim. Try to be more careful, and if you avoid any injuries for the next seven years, maybe we'll drop your rates a bit."
That's 19455 and 3/10 frostys from Wendy's! A lot of them!
That would keep you from getting a sugar craving for a few hundred years.
