Am I a crispy college student? The whole internet says that I'm hard to kill! Chapter 388: The Exorbitant Surgery Fee
Upon hearing Zhao Xu’s words, Cui Xian was initially stunned, and then seed to age ten years.
He knew his chance was gone.
After all these years in insurance, today marked the end of it.
After pondering for a mont, Cui Xian said in a deep voice to Zhao Xu, "I won’t resign voluntarily. If you want to leave, just fire ."
"I’ve done nothing wrong. All procedures were legal and compliant. As for how you handle this with our peers after firing , that’s your business."
"Is it you or who is following up with Wu Bin? If it’s you, I’m leaving. I have other matters to attend to."
Zhao Xu even thought he had misheard, staring at Cui Xian in disbelief.
"Did I hear you wrong? You dare talk to like that?"
Cui Xian sneered, "You’re just looking for soone to take the bla. Even if I resign voluntarily, could I really stay in the insurance industry afterward?"
"We are all adults. There’s no room for sentint here. You fire , I take the bla, and that’s it. Simple, right? No other issues? If there are none, I will be leaving now."
Having said that, Cui Xian turned and left the hospital imdiately.
The viewers in the live broadcast couldn’t help but start comnting when they saw this scene.
"This insurance guy really has backbone to openly confront his boss. If I had that courage back in the day, I wouldn’t just be a departnt manager now."
"Buddy, stop bragging to us. If you had that courage back then, you might just be a waiter now. Do you really think courage is enough in the workplace? The one thing not lacking in it is courageous young people. What’s really lacked is young people with brains."
"That’s true. Before graduating, you might feel that everyone will accommodate you, but once you leave school, you realize it’s completely different. It’s better to be low-key and think before acting."
The reason Cui Xian feared Zhao Xu was because he wanted to keep his job, wasn’t it?
However, not only did Zhao Xu not realize this, but he even asked Cui Xian to resign voluntarily, which was utterly disrespectful to Cui Xian.
That was practically telling him directly that not only would he not be allowed to work in the company but also that he would not get any compensation.
Shortly after Cui Xian left, the ergency room’s doors opened.
A group of doctors walked out looking sowhat exhausted.
He Bingbing and Huang Yan imdiately gathered around.
"Doctor, what’s the current condition of Wu Bin?"
The doctor said gravely, "When Wu Bin was brought to our hospital, he already had a ruptured liver and severe internal bleeding. Fortunately, he was brought in tily, and after relentless efforts, we managed to save him."
"However, for the next period, the patient needs complete rest, bed rest, and must not go anywhere. In a while, the patient will be directly transferred to the ward. I hope you won’t disturb him unless necessary."
Upon hearing the doctor, He Bingbing and Huang Yan imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he’s alive, all is well.
If he’s alive, it’s not a big issue, and as for dical expenses, the insurance company will naturally take care of it.
Zhao Xu also wanted to step forward to inquire about Wu Bin’s condition when a nurse ca over and asked, "Wu Bin’s dical fees are ready, who is responsible?"
When Wu Bin was brought in, the accompanying doctor had already reported to Li Guotai, stating that Wu Bin had been admitted because of a fight.
In such cases, Wu Bin’s dical expenses would naturally not be borne by the hospital.
After all, when Li Guotai had given Wu Bin the Bai Long card, he did so thinking that if Wu Bin developed any disease on his own, the hospital could cover most of the expenses, relieving him of future worries.
For situations where soone was admitted due to being beaten, it was only natural for the hospital to hold the responsible party accountable.
Hearing about the dical fees, Zhao Xu knew it was ti for him to step in.
He gestured to the nurse and smiled, "The dical expenses for Wu Bin this ti will be initially covered by our insurance company. Could you tell approximately how much money will be needed?"
The nurse said very calmly, "Oh, not much, the cost for this surgery alone is 1.7 million. As for the maintenance fees and such, we will settle up with you once a week."
"How much? 1.7 million?"
Zhao Xu’s mouth twitched, and he felt terrible.
"What kind of surgery costs 1.7 million just for one procedure? Do you have a detailed list or data, because I would like to take a look at it."
Zhao Xu found it quite hard to comprehend.
If Wu Bin had undergone a transplant, he could understand a figure over a million.
But it was just an ergency rescue for internal bleeding, how could it possibly cost Wu Bin 1.7 million!
The nurse took out a prepared billing list and handed it to Zhao Xu to see.
As these were rather specialized dical bills, Zhao Xu naturally couldn’t understand them, so he passed the dical bills to the assistant standing next to him.
After carefully examining the list, the assistant couldn’t help but say to Zhao Xu, "President Zhao, there’s nothing wrong with this dical bill, the charges are correct."
"Bullshit!"
Zhao Xu cursed angrily, "How could it be this expensive if nothing’s wrong?"
The assistant patiently explained again, "It’s expensive because this guy nearly died several tis. To save him, the hospital used so very costly drugs. The peculiar thing was the dosages of these drugs; each dose was very small, but the frequency of use was very high."
"Take this adrenaline, for example, each injection was quite small, yet there were many injections, which is really strange as it shouldn’t be the case."
"Could it be because this guy was repeatedly on the brink of death, so the hospital kept administering multiple doses of adrenaline?"
The assistant could guess from the usage of the drugs that the rescue process must have been very treacherous.
But he still couldn’t understand why the hospital used the drugs in such a manner.
Zhao Xu, as if he had found a loophole, inquired excitedly, "According to you, is the hospital engaged in unauthorized use of drugs? If that’s the case, we shouldn’t have to pay these dical bills, right?"
The assistant spoke sowhat awkwardly, "President Zhao, I don’t think that’s likely to happen. This is a hospital presided over by Director Li, and the patient this ti is a famous internet celebrity. The doctors wouldn’t engage in such acts; they aren’t foolish enough to commit a cri against the wind."
"Besides, if we had any doubts about this bill, they would probably release the dical video to prove their innocence, and then we would be at a disadvantage."
