anyone not from the US want to see a breakdown of my medical bills over the past month ? (or from the US and want to see) i have pretty good insurance BTW. fascinates me just how much healthcare is once you’re in the thick of it
April 5 first urgent care visit for a sprained ankle:
April 5 boot given for sprained ankle
Insurance covered: $118.95
April 5 Xrays for sprained ankle
Insurance covered: $1125.80
April 9th second urgent care visit for the flu
Insurance covered: $240.47
April 15th first ER visit:
Insurance covered: $3,310.51
April 15th second ER visit:
Insurance covered: $1656.09 minimum. still pending additional $3000 or so as i met my deductible during this time
I owe: $100 minimum. could just be $100 copay or additional $3k depending on when claim was processed
April 15 ambulance ride to hospital:
Total charge: unknown. i have not recieved this bill yet
April 19th third ER visit:
Insurance covered: $4174.15
April 22 First primary care visit:
April 28 second primary care visit:
April 29th video visit for paperwork (literally 5 minutes)
May 7 fourth primary care visit:
Total charge: $198 (may be more due to lab work)
Insurance covered: unknown. likely will owe $0 again
Not to mention all the medication ive had to pay for not included in these bills
feeling blessed that i do have some savings that i can dip into and that i have a HSA plan with my insurance so a lot will be paid off with that
gotta love our healthcare system. cause like this is really all just for the flu and post viral symptoms. imagine if there was something actually really wrong with me
