Basically it goes

Hospital: Holy fuck insurance pays more than peons can, increase the prices! 2 chewable asprins are now 200 dollars.

Insurance: Hey, fuck you, you cunt. We’re not paying 200 dollars for 10 cents of chewable asprins. We’ll pay 50.

Hospital: Hey, fuck you, you got the money, give us 125.

Insurance: Go fuck your whore mother, You’re getting 100 and not a dollar more

Hospital: Fine, Deal.

Self Pay Patient: How am I supposed to afford to pay for the asprin when this is how it goes…
