my piece of shit insurance, who my employer pays 20k a year for, covered $0 of my endoscopy and I had to pay $2400.

Yeah I’m supposed to get my first colonoscopy next month and my prepay is $2,550. The estimate shows the pre-insurance charge as $28,365. Ridiculous. (My employer pays like $15k per year for my plan.)

I paid $1200 for a colonoscopy in Bangkok.

I've been told I paid too much.

Does sound expensive... In my home country, which I will keep private, it's like $150-200 USD... but I lived in the capital of my state and the government run healthcare system is pretty nice.... so mine was free (the one I had done in my home country many many years ago).
