>> Well, since I got the itemized bill I'd have to say that, (on this specific issue anyway), you flat out don't know your hat from your nether regions. If you got a bill for $50 for a single q-tip, it was a mistake that should have been called to the hospital's attention. Perhaps you got charged $50 for a a box of $1 qtips containing 50 ... The point is taken; hospital bills often contain very high charges for what should be very inexpensive items. But it is not a case of price-gouging. It is an anomaly that is created by a billing system that anticipates no one will every pay full price, not unlike the pricing of cars at a dealership.
