Amanda Kloots details ‘financial magnitude’ of late husband Nick Cordero’s hospital bills: ‘Death is a business’


Amanda Kloots shared details about the “financial magnitude” of her late husband Nick Cordero’s hospital bills when he was on a ventilator due to COVID-19 complications.

“Nick was in the hospital for 95 days. His whole body was being run by machines,” the “Talk” co-host recalled on SoFi’s “Richer Lives” podcast Tuesday.

“The ventilator alone was — and I think I might be under-quoting it — $3,000 a day. Just the ventilator alone, on top of the 20 other machines that were running his body.”

Kloots, 42, said when she heard how much Cordero’s hospital stay would cost, she questioned how she would cover the expenses.

“I never thought I was going to lose my husband. Until the day he passed away, I really thought he was going to make it,” she shared, referring to Cordero’s July 2020 death.

“So I don’t think the financial magnitude really, really hit me until he passed away and calls were coming in. Unfortunately, death is a business.”

The professional dancer said she received the “huge” medical bill for her husband’s hospital stay “almost a year and a half” after his death.

She also shared that she and the Broadway star never discussed what to do in the event of their deaths.

“Because you think you’re invincible. You’re in your 40s. You’re like, ‘Nothing’s gonna happen to us. We’re fine. We’ve got time,’” she said.

“We had just bought our first home. … We were just starting our lives.”
