SomaFM listener and supporter Martin found himself in trouble last week. He contracted a serious viral infection and had to go to the emergency room, where they did a bunch of tests and told him he had nothing seriously wrong with him and gave him some pain medication and told him to go home and let the sickness run its course. But since he doesn't have health insurance, he ended up with a $13,000 bill for this single visit.
