I had a very similar accident while on vacation in Portugal in 2018 (i did go to the hospital in a rental car, however). I first went to a small local clinic. They stopped the bleeding and bandaged me for free and sent me to a larger hospital. There i got stitches. The hospital bill (which they handed me) was 50€ ($60), which my insurance paid.

Look at it this way:

$18,933 is more than Apple would charge! ;-)
