We Have A Winner In The Guess The Amount Of The ER Bill Contest

The winner is:

jackie said... I'd guess - $1,655.00. I really want that shirt! Well Jackie, you must have been using The Secret because the bill was $1772, including the cat scan, surgery and aggravation.

Your profile isn't public so I'm guessing you're really Paris Hilton and only want the shirt because the word HOT is on it and you're looking to sue my sorry ass. Please take a number and get in line.

Email me at suzysoro@aol.com with the size you want and your snail mail.

And for the rest of you who are now going to leave a message saying that amount is reasonable, let me be the first to say, "Then you fucking pay it."

Congratulations and I'd like to thank everyone who participated in trying to give me a heart attack with your guesses. The shirt is normally $21.00 but for those of you who entered, I will sell it for $10.00.

End of chat.

    S,
    Sorry I over-guessed -- just basing it on a hospital medical bill "before insurance" where aspirin is like $8 a pill. And to assuage my guilt over having insurance, I'd like to propose that all medically insured readers of your blog should immediately send you $20. I'm in.
    Aloha,
    MJ

  8. Coincidentally, that is approximately the cost of one month's COBRA payment for a family plan.

  13. -->I'm glad I was Wrong for your sake. I think I said something like $10k!

    My bills for having a healthy baby were over $10k and With insurance I still owed over $1,000 in copays/coinsurance. (bastards)
