Re: Woman Died Because She Was Denied Hospital Care
Maybe not emergency, but operations and cures that can save your life can be refused if you don't have to pay for it or medical insurance.. On which planet do you live?

Re: Woman Died Because She Was Denied Hospital Care
Not in the US. You may end up with huge medical bills and lose all your assets, but even illegal immigrants with no money get million dollar transplants via Medicaid. Why are the most ignorant so adamant that whatever they "feel" is the truth is so? |

Re: Woman Died Because She Was Denied Hospital Care
LOL If you search "Health Care in Usa" on Wikipedia you read (this is just the beginning of the article): "According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States spent more on health care per capita ($8,608), and more on health care as percentage of its GDP (17.2%), than any other nation in 2011. The Commonwealth Fund ranked the United States last in the quality of health care among similar countries, and notes U.S. care costs the most. In a 2013 Bloomberg ranking of nations with the most efficient health care systems, the United States ranks 46th among the 48 countries included in the study. The U.S. Census Bureau reported that 49.9 million residents, 16.3% of the population, were uninsured in 2010 (up from 49.0 million residents, 16.1% of the population, in 2009). A 2004 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report said: "The United States is among the few industrialized nations in the world that does not guarantee access to health care for its population." A 2004 OECD report said: "With the exception of Mexico, Turkey, and the United States, all OECD countries had achieved universal or near-universal (at least 98.4% insured) coverage of their populations by 1990." Recent evidence demonstrates that lack of health insurance causes some 45,000 to 48,000 unnecessary deaths every year in the United States. In 2007, 62.1% of filers for bankruptcies claimed high medical expenses. A 2013 study found that about 25% of all senior citizens declare bankruptcy due to medical expenses, and 43% are forced to mortgage or sell their primary residence." I repeat: on which planet do you live? |

Re: Woman Died Because She Was Denied Hospital Care
Not surprised by Trixfel's findings. Murdercaid has denied numerous claims made by my mother to provide nursing care for her husband who has advanced Alzheimer's. Unless she fullfills the expectation of making a living off $700 per month (which is impossible in the D.C. area), you have to essentially hire a lawyer to get your application approved. Even then, she has to satisfy a "one year penalty period" before murdercaid will start covering the costs. Murdercaid, Obozocare, blue balls/blue swastika, all of it is either a profit driven scam or a government run idiocracy. I have had my own experiences with blue balls/blue swastika but i don't want to hijack this thread with a long drawn out story. Let's just say, they have made ripping people off a work of science. Not surprised one bit by those stats.
