A lot of highly educated employees, a lot of very expensive equipment and furnishings, a high risk of customers dying in their care, and injury lawyers hovering around the exits telling sick and injured people that if they aren’t 100% cured they have a lucrative claim.
Why can the hospital in France (even the private one) tell me ahead of time how much something will cost, while American providers will scream that this is absolutely impossible to do?
