She paid another $20,000. Then, she headed to the office of Carly’s primary physician, intending to ask about her condition and the projected costs for future treatment.
As luck would have it, the doctor was out on rounds and wouldn’t be back for a while.
Another doctor from the same department walked over. “If you have questions, you can ask me.”
