Hospital costs
The good news---so far I have had to pay $75.00 for the room phone and TV.
The rest of the story----I haven't even tried to add up all the multiple doctor's bills, plus anesthesiologists. The hospital bill for the first 12 days in ICU was over $80,000. That includes room costs plus MRIs, Cat-scans X-Rays, lab tests et al, it also includes the cost of the OR for 3 "visits".
So far, all have been paid by Medicare and State Farm.
