I go to my doctor for my yearly appointment. I mention some random aches I feel sometimes in my chest. Oh, I can write you a script for an echocardiogram to get it checked out, he says. Oh, ok, I guess I'll get it checked out. So I go online and everywhere I look quotes the test around $1000-3000. And with my insurance it should knock off 80%. Well, imagine my shock when I get the bill that lists the test at 20,000 fucking dollars. Where the hell does that number come from? They didn't operate on me. I didn't buy the fucking machine. A lady waved a wand around my chest for 15 minutes. How the hell does justify 20,000 dollars!!?

Like, that's it. I'm done with hospitals. I'm not getting any more testing or anything done. I tried to be prudent by following up on any concerns I have, but never again. The entire healthcare industry is full of fucking crooks. I rather die than give these criminals any of my money. Maybe there was a $5000 fee for using their front door, and a $2000 fee for using the towel they handed me. Just fuck these people. Can't wait to see them all go to hell.

That seems asinine for an echocardiogram.

Our medical system is perversely broken, it's seriously criminal.

Every day I wander in negative disposition, as I'm bombarded by superlatives, realizing very well that I am not alone.

I read this as medieval system, and it still felt appropriate.

You won't catch me in the hospital unless im forced there due to me being unconscious or passed out from blood loss and someone drags me in. Even then i'm not payin the bill because I didn't ask for their services.
