You have insurance, right?

I'm 57. Yes I have insurance plus an HSA account. Most of these expenses will come out of my pocket up to a high deductible so it makes a difference to me if they charge $5,000 or $500,000.
It should be a concern to all of us if we want to ever control the expensive cost of medical care. The system does not seem to be geared up for one to shop for these services, just pay whatever they charge and claim it on your insurance.
