Social worker Aaron gets a hospital bill charging a NEW MOM $1,900 just to hold her own baby. He reenacted the call with the hospital:
“Skin to skin contact post-delivery.”
He’s on the phone like: “You charged her for what now? Nursing was already in the room — anesthesia, surgical team, circulating nurse… and you need a separate nurse to watch mom hold her baby?!”The absolute audacity. Hospitals nickel-and-diming new mothers for basic human bonding.
Congrats, medical industrial complex and ObamaCare— you’ve turned childbirth into a luxury spa service with surprise billing and $99 aspirins.
How many new parents are getting absolutely fleeced like this?
