A $3,000 charge to remove a splinter from a child.
A girl living in America told how much it cost her family to seek medical help after a common injury in the home of a two-year-old boy:
After three years of living in the US, you should probably get used to these inadequate bills by now. But it's one thing when they actually do some kind of manipulation on you, take X-rays, take pictures, draw blood, I mean, they do at least something.
And now they did nothing to the child and me. The situation is this: we have a wooden balcony, and Sasha planted a deep splinter. I pulled out part of it, but it was already broken inside. The boy is two years old, and to be honest we didn't dare to cut anything at home. So, we went to Elgin Care, where they treat such cases: injuries, bruises, etc.
And now we get the bill. Guys, just think about it: $3,000 without any details! for what? In short, it's just ass!
And this is only a story with a fragment; It is better not to imagine more serious cases.
