What to Expect from Chicago Med Season 11 Episode 15: The Cost of Living
Chicago Med Season 11 Episode 15, “The Cost of Living,” forces Archer to face his own mortality as he works on a very difficult case. All season long, Archer has been reminded of his age due to the age difference between him and Asher.
Even though it has seemed as if this isn’t a problem for him, coming face-to-face with this patient and his own age might force him to question himself in this situation he is in. Hopefully, this is something he discusses with Asher rather than handling it on his own.

Meanwhile, Frost is faced with his own father’s mortality as he has to bring him into the ED. The promo makes it seem as if his parents are still lying to him about something. Could it be his father’s illness?
Charles and Theo are working together again. This time they have to figure out a diagnosis based on certain quirks a patient is presenting.
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
