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

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.
