Should have had at least 20 items they DIDN'T order show up just to make sure they aren't too hungry, act as if they are complimentary, then charge for not only each dish, but the wings and fries are charged separately.

In the U.S. with insurance, you have what's called In-Network and Out-Of-Network providers. In-Network is usually paid for by insurance up to 90% of the cost. Out-Of-Network may be partially paid or not paid at all. You can end up in a hospital for emergency treatment and only some of the staff is considered In-Network. A friend of mine was pregnant and called the hospital to make sure it was In-Network and was assured everything was fine. She found out that her doctor was covered but the anesthesiologist was not (she had a C-section) so that was at least an extra $5,000 out of pocket just for that. I think she had some other Out-Of-Network costs on top of that.

Actually a friend of mine who works in the restaurant industry (if it's a real industry) once told me that most of the restaurants, including the high-end ones, are not making money off of the food, instead, they make money off of the liquor. That's why, when you sit down at a restaurant table, the first thing your server asks you would usually be, "can I start you with something to drink?" While you finish your glass, they will immediately come over and ask, "another one?" That's probably also the reason why you'll wait a long period of time for your food after ordering, especially at a high-end restaurant, because the longer you're waiting for your food, the more drinks you're likely to consume, thus, more money for the restaurant.

One week in the hospital cost me $10,000- with insurance.

[@Rising_Pho3nix_23]

They forgot the waiting room, the blood draw, the weight scale (that would be hilarious)

[@moebro101]

The Doctor won't even take you till they know your insurance.

[@jijiji9520]

"This is not a bill" the first time I saw it, I was very confused. 10 years later I don't know much...

Now do one for the VA. I got plenty of jokes.

Healthcare in the US brought to you by used car salesmen.

Should've said that the bakery doesn't accept credit cards

The sea bass was substituted with an asian carp, as the sea bass was tied up at another restaurant.

They were much hungrier than you 😂😂 I'm dying

[@simosc2]

LOL....Absolutely Brilliant!!!!

[@Ladymagentabennett]

I just found out it cost me $2,000 just to walk in to a emergency center. Then another 2,000 to actually be seen by a doctor! This is Crazy!

[@DRJOLLYTHOMSONHEALTHCARE]

No one comes to a hospital in search of a great time. They come to search for solutions to some disturbing problem. The priority is on figuring out the solution and often there is only temporary relief and unfortunately most often there is little scope for many niceties. Most importantly the focus is almost never the real solution which often lies in a change of lifestyle for the better.

So happy most of the industrialized world doesn't have US health care system.

[@dominickjustave3558]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 u must not have been to many countries

[@rosegroshek1218]

The rest of the world gets high taxes. I'd rather have higher healthcare

[@jspriver]

What about the part where the customer gets the food for free but still treats the staff like crap? Medicaid anyone?

[@jmazz1127]

You missed the point where they ask you about insurance, your job, bank accounts when you first walk in the door. Hello what is your name do you have insurance or has it changed. Who is your employer etc.

[@surferdano9528]

You forgot to add the version of the entitled people who want everything for free and everyone else pay for them . Let’s also not forget to be the most difficult customers, while the people who are responsible have to wait longer so the md has to deal with them.

[@honestreviewer5322]

Idk why but the girl in this skit drove me nuts!

[@dbergerac9632]

I'm sorry, but your credit plan requires you to share a table with two strangers.

[@meher0483]

just to let yall know... the reason why ur doctor takes so long to get to u is bc of other patients. A lot of the time a patient will bring up something else they are facing and not only the scheduled thing. An example is a patient coming in for headaches. That normally wouldn't take up too much time, however, the patient then brings up constant bloody noses and tremors. That was not scheduled or even planned for, thus taking up more of the doctors' time (bc they can't disregard the patients), and therefore making you wait longer. A lot of the time it isn't even the doctor's fault, mostly just the hospital or practice that runs the shit service

[@sashakramer5150]

As a worker in medical billing im dying 🤣

[@Googledybunker]

That will be $56,000.
