canopywhore 0 #26 October 15, 2002 I broke my femur in July. So far they have charged my insurance 20,000+ for hospital, 5,600 for surgeon, 1,800 to put me under, 750 for xrays, 400 for blood work, and that's only the ones I know about. I don't know what they paying for rehab, ambulance, and doctor's visit. Yes very expensive jump. If you don't have insurance I guess you have to file bankruptcy? I hope you heal up soon.

Scoby 0 #31 October 15, 2002 Quote after 9 months of jumping without health insurance, i'm EVER so happy that we were able to get our group coverage started up this quarter... just in time for snowboarding! (*knocking on wood*) Snowboarding can be pretty rough. My friend laughed at my wussiness when I bought a helmet and wrist guards for boarding (we had started really going big and the biffs were hurting more). Later that day, I got to see him carted off by the ski patrol. So he was in the hospital with like six broken bones in his wrist while I was enjoying a Face to Face show. Luckily his insurance covered it, cos it cost a heck of a lot of money. I was temporarily uninsured when I started jumping, but that was a really bad idea.
