and you make shitty threads.
Everyone in America making up to 138% of the federal poverty level qualifies for medicaid. Medicaid is better than Canadian Medicaid, but not much better.
Everyone making more than that has their health insurance costs heavily subsidized by their employers.

Yea..no.

>>523868581
Because youre fucking retarded. My insurance for my family is just like 70$ a month which is nothing to us americans.
>>
Just don’t pay.
I owed 20,000 because my insurance missed some simple form and wouldn’t cover my kids delivery (breach, C-Section). Total bill was $90,000 and they “reduced” it to $20,000. Wanted it paid in 10 months and wouldn’t accept less than $2000/month. Told them I couldn’t afford that and they said that’s fine it will go to collections. Got one call from collections, asking me to pay my $1,000 balance. Asked why it wasn’t $20,000 and they said it gets reduced once they get it. Told him they can reduce it to $10 and I’ll pay it. Never happened and never paid and never got another call. No judgements, no credit hit.
Went and got my deviated septum repaired. Another $80,000 I didn’t pay a dime of and has disappeared. Now just had another kid and won’t pay that either. The debt just disappears after a while. If they put a judgement on me I’ll pay it eventually but already have my cars paid for and already in my 2% mortgage so no rush. So yeah not paying has worked out great for me.

We just don’t go to the hospital. Imagine wanting to be in a hospital for any reason.

medical debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy in muttmerica. not only is the system the most expensive on earth by a huge margin, the patient outcomes are the last in the industrialised world.

in fact, medical mistakes are the third leading cause of death behind heart disease and cancer.

so whenever you hear a mutt banging on about having "one of the best healthcare systems", they mean out of 193 nations. technically they're better than somalia, but an absolute nightmare compared to developed/civilised nations.

but at least they aren't "living under SoCiaLisM/CoMMuNisM", and that's all that matters.

He's not lying. Medical debt is treated differently from other debt in the US specifically to prevent medical debt from bankrupting people. The problem is a lot of Americans are retarded and don't know this,.so they let the hospitals and collections agencies scare them into paying.

this is the most unbelievable shit I've ever read.
i dont even know where to being with how bullshit this story was but i will say unless your nose was severed from your face, a deviated septum surgery would not cost that much.
I've had 2 of those surgeries and neither was more than $10,000 before insurance got involved.

>>523869128
alright this just confirms you're underage and got extremely bad advice from someone.
Every time you communicate an understanding of debt with a collector it resets your "debt clock" on that debt.
If you ignore it and anything they ever send you for 5-7 years it vanishes and THEN they can do absolutely nothing about it.
Every single time you send "$1" it resets completely.
So anyone listening to this retard should just an hero

It vanishes from a credit report after 7 years if it even gets reported to a credit reporting agency. It is also required to stay in limbo for an entire year before it can be transferred to collections. This was made law under the Biden administration because it’s been accepted that there’s no way that you can feasibly get people to pay such outrageous bills.

It’s gotten so bad that medical providers maintain massive bad debt write off accounts that they budget for every year as an expense. I’ve see assumptions made for some providers where they’re told that they can expect to get slightly more than half of what they bill by the end of the year. I’ve seen balance sheets that have eight times the annual revenue in receivables, and everyone just shrugs and rolls it over to the next year. Any other industry would have people asking what the fuck they’re doing and if this was part of some kind of rain dance to keep the company from imploding, but American healthcare providers get a pass.

Like many things in this country, it was a problem that got half-assed patched over and then everyone pretends that it’s not really a problem.

3 times in life have been to the hospital. Twice to produce humans and once because of a car wreck couldn't breathe broken ribs spleen damage. Could have actually skipped the two humans coming out and done that anywhere. Why do people need to go to the hospital a lot? And why do you need healthcare for a doctor to say you're well this year come back next year. If I have cancer I'm dying. Dying is free. Other than a heart attack or appendix what do I need a hospital for. I can also just die from either one of those at home free of charge as well.

Because despite apparently having top notch medicine, Americans themselves are very unhealthy.

Fat, alcoholic, addicted to all kinds of substances etc and on top of that hospitals are for profit so they don't really try to fix the problem and want patients to keep coming back.
>>
>>523872257
This is true. Even with my wreck there was nothing they could do about my ribs and they put me in icu overnight and then a regular room two more days to make sure my spleen didn't rupture. Kept telling them my entire left side of my back felt like my muscles were hamburger. They ignored me. Went home and couldn't do anything because my back was mush. Oh well. I got well.

I didn't have insurance and still don't. I didn't want to go to the hospital. Paramedics had to cut me out and I mumbled sure after being unconscious. I don't participate in the system in hopes to stay alive. Now, my grandson got a double lung transplant at 14 due to cf and will be 21 next June. That was worth it. But just to live daily life paying for insurance in case? Not for me thanks.

Hospitals are death camps. The goal is to eat healthy and work out so you never have to set foot in one.

Also, if you have no close family or friends, they basically euthanize you.

I don't get it. Is it true that you can't buy almost any meds without prescriptions?

I had flu dozens time in my life, I know what to do. I just bye meds when I need, it safes time,
>>
>>523879767

Bigger issue is that most doctors here are fucking useless. I've hardly ever seen one actually legitimately help somebody with something,
Spend thousands on tests and consultation visits that just amount to talking to them about nothing for 15 minutes or repeating the same shit they said last visit. Pay for an appointment to schedule an appointment. Never want to give you prices or estimates up front and always tack on extra shit afterward and will look at you like you are crazy for worrying about a couple thousand.
Then after months wasted being taken on a ride get an
>"uhhhhhh looks normal to me idk what's wrong with you bruh".
Might as well just throw your cash into a blender.
Only thing they are good for is if you are in an accident bleeding out and need to be stitched up or you need a repeated prescription for a known issue.

Doctors today are like grifter car mechanics but more expensive and do less.
