Take the hypothetical example of your uncle’s knee surgery and attempt to find out how much the surgery would cost at a local hospital. Also, using your own insurance, calculate how much your uncles out of pocket expenses would be (if you prefer you can use Medicare instead of your own insurance).

Document your experience and what resources you used. It is OK if you don’t write 500 words.

Note: The goal of this assignment is for you to realize how hard it is to obtain the total and out-of-pocket cost of medical care. You may not be able to get all the information you need, that is OK.
