So Kaiser owe's the woman a permanent bed in a hospital, is that it? So don't bitch about the cost of healthcare, ever.

And that "your home is your castle law" sure worked out great for a scumbag named OJ. Lovely. Screw people over and retreat to your "castle".

I doubt that very much. If you go to a nursing home permaneantly and have no assets to pay for it besides your home, are you going to be able to keep your home?

Some day you may hear “all your homes are belong to us.”

So you're saying she shouldn't have to pay for medical care, and the rest of us should have to pay for it?

It is very likely that the reason she refused to leave the hospital is because she didn't have any money to pay for extended care somewhere else, so it really didn't effect her that the hospital bed cost several times what a bed in a more appropriate facility would cost.

She is unable to care for herself, and she apparently had no savings, or medical coverage for long term care. So she just stayed in the hospital because she is ENTITLED to have someone pay for her care.
