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

A perfect case for tort reform. The doctors saw a lawyer, presenting with chest pains. The choice? Adjust the meds and discharge and then risk a lawsuit, or go the extra mile and keep you overnight for additional tests.

I'm surprised you don't see the correlation.
