Yes, I know, you posted that as I was already editing to clarify. But that charge on the insurance doesn't go nowhere. It's what makes the system inaccessible to so many.

that's not true.
The insurance company and the healthcare provider have an agreed upon reimbursement rate.
The fact is she was charged 75 dollars and the hospital new they were getting ~2 grand for it.
anyway there's a lot (A LOT) more too it and we would love to see a healthcare revolution in the US. We would love it. it's just very complicated and very hard to implement.

she was charged 75 dollars, which is her co-pay which is, presumably, what she would be charged for going to the ER for any reason at all.
