I was sent to and admitted to Hospital for a low heart rate. The staff their ran full diagnostics. Doctor Halbert evidently was the attending physician, I never saw him, he charged $576 for diagnosis. I guess based on test results. He must have spent a total of 5 minutes. No wonder our healthcare costs are ridiculous. Doctors charge what they want without even ever talking to a patient. I never agreed to his services and he never even told me what his charges would be. Next time I serve him at a restaurant perhaps I should give him my bill with a especially good service charge.
