My overnight hospital stay (at CaesarCare’s own facility in nearby Walnut Creek) in 2016 was billed at a cool US $125K, but as I recall I was personally on the hook for only about 2% of the sum. At one time it would have been significantly less than even that amount, but since the turn of the century the organization appears to have filled its board of directors with Enron alumni. AG’s mileage may vary.

cordially,
