You know what’s sad? I’m going to be in an immense amount of debt for something that I can’t control — my cancer. I don’t mean to get political, but it is absolutely unfair that millions of people with this disease and others can’t get the treatment that they deserve.
It is no reason why any person in this country should be left for dead because they can’t pay off their medical bills. Although I will be able to, so many others aren’t so lucky. Something needs to be done, regardless of your affiliation.
My sister had $5 million worth of hospital bills when she was diagnosed with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. Luckily, the prices were waived. Not everyone has that luxury.
having a child in NICU for 51 nights, gonna b in debt for the rest of my life
I’m so sorry 
Healthcare should not be a for profit operation. But dont worry about debt right now. Stay positive and get healthy Kyle. Maybe things will change one day. But for right now health is the goal. Peace and strength...
Definitely!
It’s awful... it really is. Supposedly the greatest country on earth and people are dying, just trying to live
We have to do better. Greed is shameful.
My antibodies are 47k a month fam
It’s so evil. If people can’t see that, then they are blind. Pure greed.
I think sad is too nice a word for it. It’s an embarrassment to any country much less one that considers itself a leader on the world stage.
I’m definitely with you on that. It’s egregious.
This country can be better and should set the standard. Our current administration thinks the standard is America in the 60s. Our goal should be resetting how the world sees us. But alas too many people on a paper chase, that already have all of the paper.
I’m mostly amazed how how the trick of distraction keeps working so well. Every couple of years there is a new group of people that is “ruining the country”. Meanwhile huge corporations get bigger, the rich get richer and we slide closer to feudalism.
absolutely agree...when my late wife went through cancer treatments, we were lucky to have employer-negotiated insurance, but I looked at the bill for a year of treatments and the crazy amounts they'd charge for things like a 30 min infusion? Each bi-weekly visit was $12k!
You and @GeneralMcMaul’s stories sadden me. Why should people suffer like this. It’s unfair.
Yeah my dad's Keytruda is like half a Capri Sun pouch and costs $32K before insurance. And his treatment is on the low side from what the chemo nurses tell us
I’m not usually a conspiracy nut, but the charge amounts always seem so ridiculous, between the drug manufacturers, to even the hospital (charged 100 dollars every time they accessed her port!)
Again, I will say we were lucky that we had employer funded health insurance, and because the ACA removed the pre-existing condition denials and lifetime maximums...but the whole thing is just ridiculous
