"That'll be $200, please."
Here’s the zero you’re missing: 0
I found the other missing zero: 0
Those are 1990s numbers (yes, really). Now, add a zero and some change.
I think my visit seeking prophylactics when I was exposed to HIV (and the doctor just said, "nah, don't worry about it, I'm not prescribing you") was $1500 for the doctor, $1500 to the hospital... God damn that was a shock.
That’s the other fun part. Hospital bill is separate from doctor bill. And often, lab/histology bill.
