See How Much A US Hospital Charges To Treat A Rattlesnake Bite
WOW!!!! Who got snake bit?
The last report I read was one just over $80,000.00 for a copperhead snake bite. Just glad it was not me. It was my nephew. Lost his wedding ring but kept his finger.
Dang, I think heart surgery would have been cheaper!!!
It would only be 1/20th of that if most paid, but they don't.
Another reason to avoid snakes!
Well, he has 5 days to pay in full. Just a prime example of why most have to work until at least 65 for medicare to kick in. Can't go without insurance. Even if you're perfectly healthy, poop happens.
They sure didn't waste any time getting that bill sent out!
That is ridiculous.
I would tell them to Bite Me.
$25 a month for the rest of your life would be how I paid it!
be free for an illegal :)
Apparently, this is the norm for snake bites. According to this article, a dose (1 vial) can cost as much as $20,000.........and several doses are required.

Boy Howdey. Kind a makes you want to doctor yourself.
I still have my old snake bite kit from the boy scouts back in the 1960's. Although they say not to use them now on snake bites. I might would be better off using it as to having a heart attack from a $150,000.00 hospital bill.:yikes
Wonder if that is with or without OBAMACARE???
Good time to hunt rattlesnakes and sell them to hospitals,,,, Might make a couple Hundred bucks per snake for venom
We do have probably the best Healthcare in the world it is a little pricey!!!!!!!
