God bless the NHS......

An elderly woman told me about her recent trip to America with her sister. They`d been to visit family over there. The womans sister started to feel unwell whilst in the states & had to spend 3 days in hospital. Luckily they had insurance to cover the hospital costs. Before they got discarged from hospital, they had to sign all the paperwork regarding the insurance claim. On the form was an itemised bill. It said:-

3 days in hospital = $25,000
1 course of antibiotics (12 pills) = $900

I`ll never call the NHS again.
