Wisconsin is truly f’d up. They’ve been shafted over by the republicans countless times, to the point where it’s no longer particularly safe to travel there.
My health insurance company’s app has a feature where you can view a map showing prices of various elective procedures. This is to help make a decision about which provider to choose, and if it’s worth it to travel a bit for a better price. An in-network surgical procedure that has an average cost of $2000 in Minnesota has an average cost of about $5900 In Wisconsin.
So if I get sick or injured in Wisconsin, I’m telling the ambulance driver to take me to a hospital across the border. I don’t need to be financially ruined because I got sick in the wrong state.
