A tumble down the stairs can end up much worse than a broken leg though, especially for us older folks.Nah, I fractured my ankle and leg and it cost me less than $2k for the emergency room visit, and all the followup visits with an Orthopedic doctor.
Everyone gives you huge discounts for paying cash as well.
The sad part is, a female friend of mine who had insurance and fractured her leg ended up paying around $2500 for similar care because of her deductibles and the markup on everything when you use insurance.
