Was that the County Hospital?
When my son was flown there from Lake Powell (after they flew him to St. George) they charged $26,000 for a CT Scan that St. George billed $1200 for the same thing..Then we had to fly him to University of Utah (after I just drove to Vegas from SLC area) because Vegas could not do the surgery....3 life flights in one day. Vegas charged a total of $63,000 for 8 hours in the ER...morphine and the CT scan was all they did...doctor seemed pissed we interrupted his night and he couldn't watch the fights.
They have to gouge the insurance companies to cover all the tweakers that end up there with no insurance.
