There's something horribly wrong with a system in which the doctor cannot readily tell you how much a procedure will cost.
It's not like the doctor is building a new space rocket every time they do an appendectomy, or designing something completely new. It's a procedure that is done thousands of times per day. But still, no one can tell you how much it will cost.
There's layers and layers of waste in American healthcare. No one seems to really want to take point in fixing it. Frankly, it seems like a hopeless situation that will only get worse.
