Just looked at the hospital bill we got that covers all the things that have happened since Martha first got diagnosed w/ Melanoma (die cancer, die!) this past September...

So, this covers two surgeries, several 'minor procedures', imaging, visits, etc.:

Charges
Total hospital charges$28,655.49
Adjustments to date$-22,091.34
Amount pending from insurance$229.85
Already paid by insurance$-6,356.30
Already paid by patient$0.00
Amount [we] owe now$50.00

Wow! I'm not about to get into the current healthcare reform stuff (I'm not intellectually equipped to do so) ... but, wow, thank God for a job, a job that's a good job, and a job that provides insurance.
