I had my nose cauterized recently for bloody noses - just one side as the doctor said we couldn't do both at once. Nearly $300 for the visit, and another $300 for the "procedure," which entails the doctor sticking a stick with some silver nitrate up your nose. So, $600 for (at most) 10 minutes of work for the doctor, and maybe another 10 minutes for the nurse. Someone making $15 an hour would have to work an entire week for that, and for me it's over a day's worth. People should be disgusted. The only reason they aren't is because their insurance usually covers things.
