Here's the insurance claim from my little bathroom floor episode a few weeks ago:
Hospital Services (Xray, etc.): $451
Ambulance (3 blocks, one way... had to walk home in my bathrobe and slippers): $885
Doctor: $4,226.
-------------------
TOTAL: $5,562 -$100 deductable.
I got a photocopy warning me about "bearing down" when I pee, and a couple holes in my arm that hurt for two weeks. One for input (hydration) and one for output (blood).
Well, I guess "peace of mind" is worth $100.
Some people are married to their mortgage; working because they have to pay off the house. But I guess we can also be married to our health insurance.

It really is insanity, isn't it? Now go forth and pee correctly...
