Exact same thing happened to me. $14k emergency room where I was only there 2 hours, but now I’m paying off an $8k negotiated bill where I’ll be paying monthly for years to come.
Wouldn't even take me two years. My life savings amounts to the $1k in my savings account. 21 years of working full time aside from the first two years of covid. That's what I have to show for it
If Hegseth is confirmed, he and Doug Collins hope to drastically reform veteran and military healthcare.
Hegseth believes many health benefits for service members and veterans – should not be asked for at all.
Privatization of this program is being discussed.
What’s more, people save their entire lives for retirement, only to see everything completely wiped out if they need long term nursing care. Medicaid refuses to help until they can prove they’re indigent after doing what is known as a “spend down” where they pay $8-10k per month to the nursing home.
Comments
The hospital "graciously" reduced it to $7K and now has monthly payments for the foreseeable future.
Healthcare is broken.
