Holy cow. Don’t mean to interrupt the discussion, but I inadvertently opened a bill addressed to my late son (I’ve been sending them back as “deceased”). It was for the Medivac when he was transported to Charlotte. Cost: $16,58.75 with an “uninsured discount” of $5,006.92, for a total of $11,451.82 (for a distance of about 35, maybe 40 mi).
Luckily, Medicaid will pay everything. Ironically, something he couldn’t get when he was alive, because also, ironically, he was considered “disabled” while he was hospitalized for 6 days before he died.
