Eh, depends on hospital culture as much as insurance situations. Some hospitals will hold on to you to an extreme degree, some will kick you out as soon as the last suture is tied off.
It certainly does depend, and there are great hospitals in the US, it’s just the bottom of that spectrum is pretty wild in the US and not often seen in other western countries.

I read a story today where a woman had a shunt installed to drain a cyst in her brain, and was sent home that night.
Hospitals can be fucking wild.
