1000 to 100k? How about zero to infinity? Hospital refuses to give any price range for a colonoscopy, wouldn't quote a cash price because I had insurance. Insurance can't say if it is covered. Won't know until the claim is submitted. Says it might be fully covered as preventative care, or partially covered, or not covered at all. Might not even go against the out of pocket max. Spent a week on the phone trying to get a straight answer. Final bill 3k.

No one take responsibility. Just blame the algorithm or something. Maybe upgrade to a deep learning black box for perfect deniability.
