I have patients that we are just keeping alive...They are not "alive"...though.
They will never be alive..as you and I know what is alive.
It's cruel...and I know it's about money...on the hospitals side or the families side..
It's very sad...
Another vote against Obamacare.
They are already there.
Luckily, the child was receiving his second round of treatments from St. Jude in Memphis, Tennessee - a hospital that provides care free of charge
Insurance companies are FOR PROFIT businesses.
Spending money on cancer treatment is clearly expenses. If the health insurance companies are also offering life insurance coverage, then they might sing a different tune. Until then, it is simple economics. Maximize the revenue while minimizing expenses.
The rules of Obamacare will require the insurance companies to restrict healthcare to higher risk patients in order to save money.
As it was meant to.
“a hospital that provides care free of charge “
There ain’t no free lunch, so to speak. Any taxpayer money being funneled into this feel-good cause? Hope it is all private charities.
You’re too cynical.
If they had a health share company instead of insurance, it would have been covered. Get your new babies from day one covered by a faith or self reliance freedom oriented health share company. Then once your deductible is covered, the child would be able to see any doctor in the world for 100% coverage. We use Liberty Health Share and I recommend it.
But they would pay for sex “change” operations, aids treatment, abortion and euthanasia.
Have they contacted Jimmy Kimmel yet for his help? Maybe he can weep some crocodile tears for them?
Insurance companies have restricted healthcare to save money since the inception of the industry.
Pre-existing condition exclusions and caps on coverage are why the ACA has the limited support that it does.
Its not really about the truth. Its about selling newspapers, selling ad time on networks and getting clicks. We could say the truth is out there, but we aren’t ever going to run into it.
Good to know.
