I don't like the pricing structures of hospitals either, nor do I think they really give the kind of care that they should (for what you pay). We had to pay something stupid high when my mother went to get something removed and my dad ended up waiting on that problem I told you about during Christmas just so his insurance would help pay on it. If you remember what it was, it really wasn't something he should have been waiting for.
No one really likes those consent forms or any of the new red tape that keeps people from receiving care, today. If your dad had come to see my granddad back in the 60s/70s he'd done all the work for your dad for free if you'd promised to come by for the next three weekends and build him a fence. No paper work and no wait. Thats how things used to roll.
