tonight. >> starting with the charge master, what hospitals call the price list for everything they do. consumer watchdogs say the prices are much, much higher than they should be. >> there's no basis for this pricing. they're charging whatever they think they can get away with. >> medical providers set prices and hospital patients don't see the prices until they get the bills. >> by law, in many states, providers can charge whatever they wish for >> ed is a good example of that. >> it's hard even to explain. >> he asked know investigate his bills three years ago. he passed away but asked us to keep his story alive! a shot how long does it take? >> a matter of seconds. >> one clinic an injection related to his chemotherapy cost more than $7,000. on another bill it cost $9,000. then he went to a hospital where the price again for that same injection shot up to nearly
