A company may pay for the first 1,000 dollars for each day in the hospital, and if the hospital charges you 2,000 dollars your out-of-pocket expense is 1,000 dollars a day.

公司可能会支付每天在医院的前 1, 000 美元，如果医院向您收取 2, 000 美元， 您的自付费用就是每天 1, 000 美元。

In Florida, for example, the University of Miami Hospital charges the government more than $78,000 dollars for a major joint replacement. But the Mercy Hospital and Medical Center in Chicago charges about $36,000 dollars for a similar procedure.

例如，在佛罗里达州，迈阿密大学医院向政府收取超过 78,000 美元的主要关节置换费用。但是芝加哥的 Mercy 医院和医疗中心对类似的手术收费大约 36,000 美元。
