I had a loved-one have to be intubated and was on life-support for around 3-weeks. The total bill in the end was over 2 million USD.
Fortunately I was unemployed at the time and had state-subsidised low-income healthcare so I paid very little out-of-pocket. If it had happened when we were working it probably would have cost us over 50k in deductibles and out-of-pocket costs.
Do not ask me to make it make sense. I have lived in this “system” my entire life and I hate every moment of this dreamworld nonsense.
