I am assuming the team absorbs the cost of the first-class ticket to San Antonio for Beckett’s thumb?

What would a team spend on medical related bills in a season? Is it covered by insurance? Even first-class flights and hotels?

Boston Red Sox starter Josh Beckett is headed to San Antonio to have a thumb injury examined, the team confirmed Monday morning, and is questionable to make his first start of the season in Detroit on April 7.
