i have a question for all of the pro universal health care people.
my wife is a diabetic as i have discussed here before. well she just spent 4 days in the hospital due to a flare up of DKA. i dont have health ins, nor will i any time soon. total cost for this will be god knows what as the 4 days where in a step down icu. my guess is it will be around 10 k. now the question is how would you feel is i forced you to carry my wifes health ins or the cost of the hospital bill, as that is what universal health care is
its telling all of those who have ins or pay taxes that they have to cover those who dont.
now for the good part she is fine, the flare up was caused by a minor case of food poisoning.
the other good part, the hospital will probably forgive the bill just by asking. the hospital knows they will not get any money because we dont have any, and they will just write it off. they dont turn it over for collection, they just know they wont get it, they doit all the time just by asking.
the reality of the last part, if universal health care becomes a reality do you think they will just forgive and bill that the .gov or an ins policy will pay
