Just received a $1500 bill for an echocardiogram. [Discussion]

Just received a $1500 bill for an echocardiogram.

My insurance paid $1300. $2800 for an hour with a rude woman contorting me into uncomfortable positions. Now I have an appointment with the cardiologist that ordered the echocardiogram for him to discuss it with me, where he will charge $200 to interpret the results. The interview will take fifteen minutes and he will suggest another one in six months.

All for a heart murmur that hasn't gotten worse in over ten years.

I am so fed up with the American Healthcare system that the next time someone says "You don't want government run healthcare," I'll remind them we currently have for-profit healthcare, where it may be more profitable to let you die.

Why we Americans still falling for this?
