If you ever wondered why generic Tylenol costs $200 in the emergency room, this is why.
It's certainly one of the reasons. There are plenty more though. For example, my friend's girlfriend went to the doctor recently and they mixed up some of her papers with someone else's. Well, that's a HIPAA violation, so the place ended up having to pay several thousand in fines (to the government of course, not to my friend's GF) for a simple clerical error that really didn't need to be a big deal.
