wait, so if something happens to an American and he has no insurance, he is basically fucked for life?
>>
>>71928934
What the fuck, was he bitten by every snake in the country or something?
83K for meds and 22K for bloodwork is insane.
>>
Something like that happened to me once. The bill was like 50k but I had insurance so I only payed like $175

We have insurance dude. Chill
>>
When I see bills, like this one - I have deep and heavy minds, kind of knowledge about, that all of the world is under few persons, which have most of our money and everyone else, even if will earn a little, can start to be poor in one moment.

It all makes me sad.

>>71930355

Yes.

I can tell you once, I went to the doctor for an earache, they simply cleaned my ears and sent me home. For that, they charged $2000. Because I have insurance through my parents thanks to Obama, I only paid $200.

It's called the "co-pay," where the insurance will only cover up to a certain amount of money, as long as you pay a certain amount, a co pay. In addition, if my bill was higher, it is possible that I would have to pay the $200 and any amount of money over what the insurance would cover.

For example, imagine I had a bill that cost $5000. If my insurance would only cover $2000, I would pay the $200 so the insurance would cover $2000, and then I would need to pay the $3000 extra.

Working class life, friend. Mom manages a deli and dad works in the post office.

It varies a lot depending on the doctor and the insurance you have.

Your average american unironically believes this

>>71928934
So basically, doctors are ripping off you even if you shot and need a operation right now or you will die?
>>
>>71932120
They have to treat you, they can't decline.
>>
>>71932208
Then you have a 150k debt? Can you just not pay?

>>71931084
thanks for your contribution
>>
>>71932120
Yes. They HAVE to treat you, but you could be in debt for life. Further, they only have to do the bare minimum - if there is a more expensive treatment that would be better for you, they don't have to do it.

I've said it a million times - America is only good if you are rich. Do not come here otherwise. Go to Western Europe instead.
>>
>>71932208
And then you will have to pay for it, right? Or I missing something?
I don't really know a US healthcare system, so I'm curious.
>>
>>71932327
If you don't pay, your credit score takes a huge hit, and you won't be able to take out any loans in the future, buy a car, a house, etc.

Also, you run the risk of a collection agency taking you to court and reposessing your property.
>>
>>71932437
Wow, your country can be full of shit sometimes. Here you have 5x chances to be shot, but at least you will die or be treated in a shitty hospital for free.
>>
>>71932437
>you won't be able to take out any loans in the future
Not true. You will just have a higher rate of interest.
>>
>>71932408
Yes you are sent a bill
>>
>>71932545

Depending on how bad your credit score is. I can tell you from experience that bad credit scores can get you flat out denied from taking out loans.
>>
>>71932437
>>71932545
Welp. If I ever will go to a US for a tourism or working, I will have to make sure if will be a victim in an accident or something similar, these accident must be a fatal one.
>>
>>71932673
Well as long as you aren't working fast food your employer should provide you with health insurance.
>>
I think I'll go break my own leg for the memes and not pay a dime

Things that never happened

>>71932748
Well, in my country a politicians should not be a corrupt fucks. Yet they are.
>>
>bad shit happens
>go to hospital
>total bill: 1000chf
>will even get lower taxes because of it

feels good man
>>
>>71932748

Even with insurance, it'll only cover so much. Again, from experience.
>>
>Be my uncle
>Work as an inspector for shitty warehouses
>Bitten by violinist spider
>Hand is fucked
>Goes to hospital
>Gets skin transplants and treatment for a couple of months
>Full recovery, family is happy
>Bill comes in

We are truly oppressed when compared to the Americans
>>
>>71933083
>>71932748
Still more pros for a fatal accidents, sorry.
>>
>>71930355
No. You can't be refused treatment because you can't pay, and there's basically nothing they can do if you don't pay.
>>
>>71931168
