Asked if she'll be playing a heroic or villainous role in X-Men: Apocalypse, the Academy Award-winning actress said, She s very complex, so she s kind of both. She s a hero to her own race, in a way, which makes her a villain to the opposite race. I don t really know where she s going to go.
The national average E.R. visit costs $383, while the national average doctorâs office visit is approximately $60. Unnecessary E.R. visits can delay care for those with true emergencies, and cost billions of dollars.
Such astronomical prices are indeed seen, according to a NIH-funded study published today in PLOS ONE: The median ER visit costs 40 percent more than what the average American pays in monthly rent. But the discrepancy in ER charges is so great, according to the study's authors, that patients have no way of knowing how much they can expect to be billed. The average cost of a visit to the ER for over 8,000 patients across the U.S. was $2,168. But the interquartile range (IQR), which represents the difference between the 25th and 75th percentile of charges, was $1,957 -- meaning many patients were paying a lot more or a lot less than that.
