When my first son ws born premature and was med-evaced to Denver for 7 weeks , we found out that my wife's school district employer saved money on their health care plan by capping coverages. Flight for life max benefit, $400, ICU, $900/day max benefit etc. That nailed us for over $150,000 and then two weeks after he was born I lost about $250,000 in a weather-related business event that wiped me out completely.
Fun times, but son is graduating high school this spring in the top 5% of his class.
Glad to hear your son is well and thriving. Medical bills are crippling. When my dad passed, he spent 3 weeks in guarded intensive care before he finally gave up his fight. The bills were astronomical. The hospital wrote off most of what his insurance wouldn't cover. Our bill was well over 100K.
