Woke up nauseaous, vomited about five times, and the last one included blood so I went to the emergency room. I spoke to a doctor for less than five minutes and received no imaging. There was one routine blood draw and an IV with saline and Zofran.

God damn America. $3042 to walk in the door. I could have literally flown back to England and been seen at an NHS hospital for a 5th of the cost.

    Even reduced through my insurance company, $803.12. Everyone who works in healthcare admin deserves to be shot in the stomach and thrown to the system they represent.

      Disgosting. Hate the emergency room, because it seems to be a direct route to having thousands of dollars owed to a hospital
