I had to think about this for an embarrassingly long time before I realise this was America and they don’t have the NHS. In the UK you should absolutely provide your identity to the hospital, so it can go on your medical record.
Out of pocket visit to the Dr, about $15-$20
Urgent care, $25 -$75
Emergency room, $100-$350
These are JUST FOR SHOWING UP AND HAVING INSURANCE, WHICH WE PAY $1000 MONTHLY. The rest of the bill is charged once you leave, mostly 50% of the remaining services.
Most people with work insurance are paying 40-50 percent, and their cost as an employee is calculated as their wages plus their benefits.
I honestly believe Trump is here because we almost went to universal health care.
Trump is here because you elected a reasonable black man (not even progressive , just reasonable, willing to comprimise etc) and the racists lost their fucking minds and went “I want the opposite, the guy that’s saying this guy came from kenya (lie)”.
The reality is that Trump is here because we thought we could play games. We thought we could demand perfection and were under the impression there was no way he would win again. He appealed to people because he speaks simply and the average person doesn’t think about these things.
Maybe not now, but he was a bit more coherent in 2016. And by speaking simply, we mean he says things directly like “we’re going to solve all your problems!” It may be idiotic, it may never be a possibility, but he says ‘simple’ things that tell people what they want to hear.
He was not. It’s been nonsense the whole time aside from when people called him on his shit, then he used no more than 6 words per sentence to insult people only. Other than that, the dude doesn’t think.
Mono swelled my throat shut a while ago. Urgent care sent me to the ER. ER looked at my throat, said they can’t help Mono. It cost $780 and 6 hours to find out they can’t help me.
Taxes pay more for healthcare per person in the US than the NHS. So taxpayers pay enough taxes for healthcare to get free healthcare, but then they have to pay a premium per month to get healthcare, but then they have to pay for more than the service cost in copays to pay for healthcare.
It is insane how americans are paying for triple or more for healthcare and getting none,

Don’t be embarrassed homie. We should be embarrassed for not running the streets and fixing this shit already.

America is a dystopia. It’s perfectly capitalist.

And the racist fucks.
Trump does not ‘speak simply’. When he’s not rambling incoherently, he’s just bullying and abusing people. That’s apparently what Americans liked.
Whoa, when I said speaks simply, it was not a compliment.

Just like conmen do.

Bankrupted a fucking casino.
A CASINO.

Those costs are bullshit. The cost of the ER used to be much less if you got a referral. Also, I bet most of that is lab work.
I once paid 2000 for some tums and a “sorry we can’t do anything”

That is FAR too much for monthly insurance, you might want to shop around on marketplace instead of going private
My marketplace cost before assistance is about $1000 per person per month
I’m very sorry to hear that then
Well, the assistance makes it much more tolerable.
Why so they can censor your blood type?
