Holy $%&@…today I started opening insurance paperwork that had been piling up. One thing medical insurance is really good at is wasting trees with statement after statement.
I guess another thing their good at is keeping my ass out of the poor house! To date my medical bills have topped $43,000 from the accident. At some point someone decided to institute something called a stoploss maximum. Because of this my responsibility of the $43,000 is limited to just $2500.
Over the three days in the hospital heres how the cost breaks down:
Over 14K a day
Almost $600 an hour
And $10 minute
There are a hell of a lot of things I would have spent that money on but I’m thankful that I’m not on the hook for the whole amount!
43k and still counting, ouch!
