On vacation with my family and needed up going to an ER. Doctor ordered two basic labs and an EKG. 45 minutes in and out. No Meds or IV because I knew it would be even more expensive.
I spend over $600 a month for an employer health insurance plan.
Charges: Emergency Room $2099 Professional $680 CBC and CMP $390 EKG $514
Premera Adjustment -$339 (Affordable Care Act Adjustment)
Wellmark discount -$75
I laughed out loud. Thanks for the discount health insurance. I’ll bring the sand lube next time to make it more comfortable.
TL;DR 45 minute ER visit out-of-state with two basic labs and EKG cost over $3500 with private health insurance.
