I'm very fortunate in many ways and one of them is that my job includes private health care. This has been very beneficial. It can also be quite enlightening at times. For example, today I received the latest notification of health expenses they have paid out on. For obvious reasons, everyone and everywhere shall remain anonymous but it's quite interesting reading the figures.
For example - my one nighter in the room was £1,300 (and no double-entendres are intended there). Plus £118 for physiotherapy. I'm not quite sure what that entailed... I certainly don't remember anything (ditto, re: double-entendres).
Then there was a bit less than a grand charged for "Pathology" which I assume is looking at what had been sucked out of my brain. Now - when you consider that they also charged just over 500 quid for a preliminary MRI scan and that the op itself cost just under 3 grand, that seems quite a low charge.
Like it's more expensive to give me a room with breakfast and a copy of The Times (which I didn't ask for) than it is to have highly trained specialists examine these especially important cyto-cells that were removed and announce that I'm okay! Relatively.
Ho hum. More news on Thurs, no doubt.
