Back on April 6th I wrote a blog called “Healthcare Stupidity“. In a work email today it contained the following:

It may surprise you, but prices for medical services can differ depending on where you go. For example, identical cholesterol tests can run between $10 and $270 and an MRI can range from $300 to $3,000. Need a minor outpatient procedure? Searching in Castlight could save you hundreds. With Castlight, you can compare costs for doctors and medical services before you make an appointment.

Earn more points! Sign up, perform a search and review your medical plan in Castlight by June 30 for a chance to win 10,000 WOWPoints on e-Deals (valued at $100)*! For rules and more details please visit Castlight Rewards Sweepstakes.

Speechless, you can’t make this stuff up. As Bruce Forsyth used to say, Points mean prizes, play your card right!

Watch the video, If you are one of my US Friends… It will dispel any notion you have of the British being intelligent and articulate, much like the US Healthcare system it seems.
