TL;DR
Judith Faulkner (a literal billionaire, head of “Epic Systems” which is a healthcare megacorp) and 60 other hospital franchises (Because of course that exists) are kvetching about people wanting to know why the fuck their hospital bills are so goddamn expensive.
This is getting ridiculous. These are the “people” responsible for charging you $27 for a bandaid, and trying to make excuses for why.
BUT MUH SINGLE PAYER
No. Fuck off, that’s not the solution either.
