[quote=Anonymous]Well, it's true that urgent cares are cheaper than ER, and it's good to know which ones are open latest and earliest in your area and which symptoms mean you really need the ER. But, I don't know why you're complaining about the uninsured price. You didn't pay any health premiums, which you said were $1000 a month. According to my math your $2350 is basically 1.5 months of premium you didn't pay this year. It's December - you would have paid 18,000 in premiums but instead you paid 2350 in medical expenses. That's the trade off of being uninsured - you accept your prices will be higher because you didn't buy into the insurance network that has lower negotiated prices and you gamble that you won't get sick or have an accident that means you have to pay for a lot of medical care at that higher rate.
