max out of pocket
That's what I've been missing all this time.
Bottom line is:
If you have income above the poverty line, say $2k/mo, don't pay the insurance fee for some reason (the income is from something shady like onlyfans or etsy), you don't have a disability, and you're younger than 65 - only then you can get million dollars bill.
Otherwise, cancer treatment could cost you up to $15-30k and sometimes even be free.
That's really sad
Sorry, googled it. The actual fuck
TIL that go fund me is actually charity and not a onlyfans predecessor
But like, after one's stabilized?
Ok, I get the Black mirror reference, but I wanted serious answers
And after I go bankrupt, my children go broke, could I receive the governmental treatment for remission?
It looks like if a person is above the poverty line and is under 65 they will have to pay like 20% of the medical bill which could be insane, given they have an insurance. Otherwise most first line treatments are covered by Medicare and Medicaid Plan B.
So if a person earns, like not insane $3k/mo, they will most certainly be billed with enormous bills and be refused to be treated again in case of relapse, just because they haven't paid the previous bill?
are you asking how we treat, or what do we pay?
Both actually.
cheapest....they are not mandated to cure
So even the stabilization requires paying the bill? Isn't it like an emergency medicine where doing nothing just kills?
When the logger starts to ask real questions
Yeah, thanks for the explanation. I think I have a better understanding of the US healthcare system.
As for the people, they are just parroting the media, nothing new here.
