Hospitals are extremely risk adverse, any billing/invoicing is quite complicated and getting pre-certified hardware you don't have to certify yourself is expensive and challenging.
- MR4D 7y agoAnd we wonder why healthcare is so expensive in the US. Maybe it's time we reconsider some of these regulations. Medical billing sucks across the board (ask most doctors or any patient), and $5 aspirin is borderline criminal negligence.

- scotu 7y agouh? are you saying that where healthcare is affordable they have less strict regulations? that doesn't seem right...
- MR4D 7y agoNo. Just saying many of our regulations may not be good regulations. e.g. they could be just plain bad, or they could be poorly written, etc.
- pkaye 7y agoAre the US regulations more strict those of the EU countries?
