If health-care reform passes, I hereby announce that I too am going to Costa Rica. To celebrate on the beach! Bring me another margarita, Jorge. La reforma al sistema de salud norteamericana es muy buena!

I’ll admit that this is, in part, because it would enable me to continue my series of vaguely health-care-themed Wordplay Wednesday blog posts. Because I am convinced that’s what the people want: health-care-themed wordplay. Even if there’s polling data to show me otherwise.

Here’s today’s installment. Take two six-letter English words: one for an aging relative, and the other for an inexpensive item. (I found both in standard dictionaries, though one is an alternate spelling.) Place one word inside the other (the way you might put “BERLIN” inside “TIME” to get “TIMBERLINE”) and get a word for a medical practice that might be very expensive for your aging relative.

What are the words?
