    They were considering putting a time limit on the anesthesia they would pay for during procedures. Have a complication and the surgery runs long? Guess you’re going to be in intense pain.

      I think it would be the other way around: the doctors don’t stop giving you anesthesia if the surgry goes long, but now you wake up to it costing some extra thousands of dollars.

      More like you will be on the hook for the anesthesia bill.

      What is an extra several thousand dollars when you are already paying through the nose for insurance.

      I bet they would make even more money if they just took your money and refused to ever pay out.
