Here's an example. My wife makes $100ish an hour. So that's what insurance should get billed right? Well not exactly. Medicare and Medicaid are only going to reimburse the hospital at $20ish an hour. Therefore private insurance is going to get charged a whole lot more to make up the difference.</blockquote>
