We have many institutional problems in healthcare.
Lesson here is tell them you are illegally in the sanctuary city and you demand indigent care. If not, threaten them with harassment from immigrant “rights” groups.
I haven’t had insurance for 10 years. When I had an emergency appendectomy they gave me a rediculous bill. I pulled out a checkbook and said, “the hell I’m paying that much.” The were talked down half price at the hospital (still a ripoff) and the surgeon was paid with crisp Benjamins. I still came out ahead. Hospitals will rip everone off because they are run by the Moochelle Obamas of the world. Avoid at all costs.
The cost of Obamacare?
I remember, in those days before Obamacare, every one’s cries, “Dear Leader we are NOT PAYING ENOUGH for healthcare. We NEED to pay more”.
Ouch!
I just had my right knee used as a pin cushion.. and that came out to $200 :/
(Doc asked me if I hurt.. I told her I think I now know what having a baby felt like... was being sarcastic, of course.. but it WAS painful :/ (she did laugh though ;^))
