Finally got my full bill for my no-insurance emergency “we have to do this or you die” surgery from a month ago. (At least I think that’s it - who knows if I’ll get more random “I was in the room for five minutes that’ll be $1000” bills)

$24,000. That’s after the self-pay discount from something like $300,000. I’m making around $2400 this month.

    Hey hey! 29k just a month ago! I cried until I laughed because that's absurd, I'll literally never pay that off

    My first plan is going to be trying to ask them for an itemized list of services I think. I think with medical debt you can also work out repayment on a much smaller scale because they know they other option is you being like “fuck it.”
