How on earth can a medical facility have the guts to charge someone $550k for 8 days in a hospital. How much money would they make from that? ridiculous.

I don't know if I can blast the hospital for this. It wasn't like it was an appendix attack. She was intensive care for those 8 days, with a lot of specialists, and I believe there was at least one major surgury plus trauma treatment.
If anything compare to other medical bills that I've heard about this seems low.
I'm saying this from a thorough lack of knowledge.
But I doubt its out of line with the costs incurred in a Canadian Hospital.
