Hundreds of THOUSANDS?

I;ve got it in writing from the hospital that is going to deliver tour baby.... If a C-section is necessary it will "only" cost $3000 plus a max for $1,500 the anastesia.

I am sure there will be a few more costs involved, but I can handle it. I am fortunate to have some savings to use.

It is only scary if you don't know how to shop around for health care. In a way, it is really nice not having an insurance company tell us what we can or cannot do.

As usual, it all comes back to being able to take care of yourself.
