They can vary wildly. The average per-day hospital cost in the U.S. is $2,883, with California ($4,181) the most expensive, and Mississippi ($1,305) the least.

Because Democrats wouldn't drop a measly $5 billion on the wall. How much has housing and feeding and medical care for all the illegals Democrats let in cost the American taxpayer? Far more than $5 billion.
A rational person can only conclude Democrats invited illegals in with free goodies, in exchange for votes and seats in the House.

The US government contols who may produce insulin. See? Government caused this problem.
Of course I do. The reason hospital costs are insane is the hospitals have to recoup the money they outlay treating people for free.

Insulin insulated: barriers to competition and affordability in ...
National Institutes of Health (NIH) (.gov)
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov › articles › PMC8249113
by R Knox · 2020 · Cited by 28 — Insulin prices in the United States are skyrocketing. In addition to several challenges common to high-priced prescription drugs, insulin faces several ...
Even if reforms can be instituted to increase competition in the United States insulin market, the current market control of the Novo Nordisk, Sanofi, and Eli Lilly—the ‘Big Three’—may prevent successful entry of new products and their ability to compete.
The massive market control of the Big Three serves as a practical barrier to entry, and the potential for anticompetitive conduct magnifies this risk.
The Big Three have been accused of anticompetitive conduct in the past, and a new competitor could elicit anticompetitive tactics in response.
In other countries, the Big Three have already taken advantage of their dominant market position to price out other competitors. Novo Nordisk, for example, has priced out competitors in India.
In the event of a new market entrant in the United States, the Big Three could offer substantially cheaper prices for their insulin products, pricing competitors out of the market and protecting the existing oligopoly.
BS.

High prices for health care services is a well-known aspect of the US health care system. International comparisons reveal US prices that are many times higher than charged in European and other high-income countries for the vast majority of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
For example, outpatient computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans are priced 4 to 5 times higher in the United States than in the Netherlands and Switzerland. Such price differences are even greater for hospital-based care.
The prices for cardiac bypass, angioplasty, hip replacement, knee replacement, appendectomy, hysterectomy, and normal delivery are all 2 to 4 times higher in the United States than in other industrialized countries.

The government.

You can't comprehend it, most of it was about the consolidation the medical field has done.
Just like all the mergers in other US corporations.
Wipe out the competition, make sure no one can infiltrate their cabal, then raise prices.
I agree, the government should step in. and create a true free market.
You're a prime example.

All allowed by the government, because law makers make millions of dollars from Big Pharma.
They won't, because of the aforementioned complicit lawmakers and bureaucrats. You know -- government being the problem, and all.
And yet...you didn't even try to counter my assertion that illegals are negatively affecting the cost of healthcare. You just pretended to be superior and hoped that I'd agree with you.
How's that working out?
As people shouted back at Trump?
