This would be outpatient in the US. Nice that it was free, but took a long time.

For me, I would pay $100 for the ER and then schedule outpatient that day or later some other time and pay up to $350 for the surgery.

The tax rates seem similar though with Australia being 23.6% and US 22.6% [0] (average for single worker no kids, of course there are variations).
