And we're careful not to drop anything, since once it hits the floor we
can't sterilize it or use it over.

During kidney stone removal I had years ago, (none in the last 12 years,
knock on wood) The first basket they used to scoop it out, did not work.
Of course, I got charged for both of them.

I'm trying to remember what I got charged for them. $450, I think. Ouch!

Yesterday I learned that the cheap plastic spatulas we use for bone cement
cost the hospital $48.00 for a set of two. They are literally 10 cents worth
of cheap injection molded plastic.

Yet, the hospitals are telling everyone that we need to cut back on
expenses. Who was the bonehead that signed off on the price of these items
anyway?

The other $47.90 is to cover the cost of the liability insurance.

Another sad demonstration of how our outrageous legal system is destroying
our wonderful country.



I think lawyers should be banned from politics.
