At least a mechanic tells you the bill up front, the doctors and insurance companies make sure it takes work to find out what shit will cost. $1200 for allergy tests lol. I hope that doctor fuckin dies.

    yes, I’ve been in hospitals a lot lately and they absolutely do this. takes them a couple of minutes to be able to give you meds after they come in. also they’re so understaffed that it can take 30+ minutes to get a nurse.

    edit: the most mind-boggling thing was the hospital refusing to give me a UTI test after bottom surgery because UTIs from catheterization is one of the biggest sources of malpractice cases. I had a 104 degree fever from a UTI and I was having grand mal seizures because of it and they refused to do testing until my partner screamed at them.
