A few weeks ago, Amanda had surgery to remove a benign ganglion cyst on the bottom of her foot. The surgery took about 20 minutes and yesterday we got the statement from the insurance company for the hospital portion of the bill (doesn’t include the doctor or the anesthesiologist). The cost….just to use the hospital, for a 20 minute surgery….was over $14000, of which, we get to pay over $1200. That’s insane!
