Anesthesia during wisdom teeth extraction is another good example. I was given 3 options by the oral surgeon (with prices attached)

1) (Cheapest) local

2) (Middle) nitrous oxide

3) (Most expensive) IV sedation

In my case my oral surgeon basically said I'd be nuts to go with option 1, since my surgery was complicated.
