I recently had my appendix removed and spent 3 days in a private hospital (private room) with excellent care from a surgeon who went to school in the USA and cute Asian nurses who flirted with me around the clock. Total cost: $2300

Based on the info I have found online, the average price in the USA for the same thing: $33,611

Point is, the cost of health care in the USA is just astronomical. I honestly don't know how the average Joe who is not insured can afford anything at all. And heaven help you if you have kids.
