My personal experience says to avoid the emergency room. Over labor day weekend last year, I was having some chest discomfort so I went to ER. They knew I wasn't having a heart attack because the enzymes were normal but they admitted me over night for a useless stress test. The cost to Medicare was about $14,000 when they could have just adjusted by BP medicine and sent me home. This is the kind of nonsense running up the costs.
