Sure and appendectomies are very expensive. But why do you dismiss the OPs concern for the outrageous cost of anti-venom?

Perhaps because the cost of something as rare, expensive to produce and perishable as anti-venom is sort of justified, whereas a relatively routine operation like and appendectomy is not?

Ok, that's fine. But it still stands that snake bites cost 150K and that's a lot of money!
