Well IIRC you want more regulations in place for gun control, if its possible regulate the profit of gun manufacturer's doing this ( which would be an effect of more strict gun control measures) then I'm sure you can put in some sort of regulation on hospitals and pharmaceutical businesses. Im not using that statement as a political statement for or against gun control. I am just saying if you can regulate some things there is a way to regulate others.
There should be no reason why a hospital bills my insurance company 10,000 dollars for a procedure but if I went in to the hospital and said I have no insurance , I will pay with cash what does it cost? Well usually its about 80% difference in cost. Obviously like a credit card there is money that goes towards paying someone to do the paperwork etc... but still . Seems asinine eh?
I had an emergency appendectomy in 2010. The total billing to my insurance was 26k and some change. I had a buddy who had the same thing done with no insurance, same hospital, and he paid 1800 bucks . Doesn't there seem to be something wrong here?
