Thats borderline malpractice, or perhaps more properly, very aggressive monetizing practice: a stone, or any renal cause, is always investigated initially with ultrasound. I wonder if there is a role for disputing charges on the basis of unnecessary investigations (especially in the ED setting) based on a standard of care- sort of opposite a medical malpractice suit. But I'm in Australia and don't need to worry about having 2 years worth of debt from an emergency illness..
