He had it done as outpatient surgery the Monday before Christmas. He wasn't knocked out with general anesthesia and was at the surgery center for about 6 hours. The bill is over $140,000.00. Yeah, that many zeros, it's not a typo.
Just kidding proviso, before even I say it- amazing he didn't have a heart attack when he saw the bill. Holy moly, that's a lot of money! At least he's alive, though.
My actual heart attack, ambulance ride, ER visit straight to the cath lab and two days, or maybe it was three, in ICU cost less.
