This was Timothy Jr., of course. A check of the previous week's issue failed to turn up any details about his accident.

Geez, a stay from 11/25-12/12 - that same bill today would be in the $10-20,000+ range I would imagine! And its only $60.30? Either something is not right with that bill or this proves healthcare is strictly profit these days.
Adjusting for inflation that's still only about $800 in today's money. Shows you how much profit there must be in it these days.
