Yes and even with "gold level" insurance in a "competitive market" state that I pay $350 a month for, I still have a $4000 copay. Welcome to American healthcare. (the surgery is $10K if you don't have insurance)
bill for what? surgery? You are from america?

Well, ultimately yes. I'm just currently worn out from my Mayternity marathon and recovering from surgery and the bill collectors haven't started hounding me yet. So I've thought about it but haven't made anything concrete yet.
