That's not how much it "cost". That's how much they "charged".

Don't pay. Contact patients ombudsman. What a hospital bills is not what hospital receives - with or without insurance. The states should be ready to support the hospitals after inevitable massive write-offs. But hopefully COVID will be also paid in part by fed.
