In America, you spend a few hours in the hospital, and then for the next year you receive separate snailmail bills for each procedure, medication, machine, instrument, outsourced clinic, and every doctor who happened to pop in to greet you. All in unpredictable, exorbitant amounts. And any of these bills may be sent to you again even if you pay.

If you're well insured, you still get all the fun reading material, but they say "amount you owe: 0.00"

"Amount you owe: $15,000 MOOP (max out of pocket) and $230 premium." There I fixed it for you buddy.
