Right, hospitals and doctors offices are well known for always telling you how much something is before you agree to the procedure/medicine/checkup 🥴

I was leaving a practice after a misdiagnosis, so not in great terms. They immediately informed me my records would cost $5 per page, and I had 65 pages. How do you want to pay?

My next doctor just got the records for free anyway, but I found it frightening and disgusting that my own health records could be hijacked like that. Made me hate that practice even more.
