With over 100 prisons in Texas, The odds of you ending up in the same unit I am 
assigned to is unimaginable.

Getting you fixed up was worth every penny and then some but not if you kill 
some one and end up behind bars.  I don't think you would enjoy time in the 
slammer.

Today I learned that the reason I don’t owe 20% of $83K is that the insurance 
companies make deals with the hospitals that mark down the cost. So they say 
$83K and the insurance says “No, it is $49K” Then they trim things here and 
there, so I pay 20% of $30K. The hospital billing ladies have been really nice 
and they seem amazed by it all, even as they are explaining it. I don’t know 
who to kill. 



Further strange. I was 6 days in ICU. The insurance company sent me a letter 
that said I was pre-approved for 4. I got billed for 5. 




Do I have to kill them all?

Similarly, when Sonja had surgery years ago, we got identical, SEPERATE bills 
from both doctors in the medical practice her surgeon practiced in. Never saw, 
met, or even knew who the other doctors was.

My wife just had surgery and I have whats considered good insurance and it 
still cost me $2800 out of pocket.  
Last year leading up to the time my father died his bill for the 8 months prior 
was 1.8 million.  He had really good insurance and he didn't pay anything.  
There were doctors billing his insurance that we never saw come or go.

I thought that the $30,000+ total cost for falling off the deck was nuts, well 
today I actually spoke to the very nice hospital billing office lady who 
corrected me. The actual total bill before insurance was $83,362.67! That does 
not include the doctor’s, radiology, ambulance, emergency room or oxygen bills. 






Shirley said this is what it cost to put me back on my feet for the next event, 
a deer?
