Even with new medical procedures and breakthroughs in the treatment and repair of a conditions and diseases such as heart attack, the cost has skyrocketed beyond your wildest dreams. The cost associated with a heart attack is not common knowledge, and until you enter the game and get up close and personal, will you learn this is one game you should have avoided.
Your first heart attack cost, most likely will be, general ambulance service. Figure on at least $800-$1500 or more depending on your location.
Your second heart attack cost will be ambulance medical support, figure on an additional $100+.
Your third heart attack cost will be emergency room general services at your local hospital. Figure on at least $750, then professional fees for emergency room, another $250 or so. Then tack on miscellaneous supplies, $500 for laboratory tests, about $300 for EKG, plus X-ray drugs etc - for a grand total so far of about $2500 for your emergency room visit.
Your fourth major heart attack cost will most likely be your stay in the ICU of your local hospital, until they figure out what to do with you. Figure on a day at a cost of about $850.
Now that you have the basic heart attack cost out of the way, unless you live within reach of a major medical facility with a heart specialist on staff, you are going to get a ride in a plane or helicopter. Figure on an additional $5000-$6000 for this opportunity.
