Don't be shocked to see that $500 to $1,000 a month bill for your
family's health coverage to go up to as high as $1,500 to $3,000 a
month.


I don't normally respond to posts like this that are multiposted to
such groups as alt kooks.... but I will make this comment.

I don't say it to me mean or snotty but after spending five months in
a Canadian hospital I feel sorry for you Americans who require health
care and advanced medical services that you have to pay for out of
your own pocket.

I spent three month in a primary hospital setting, had two surgeries
and will guess that the cost was about 1,000 per day for my
treatment.

After that I spent two month in a rehabilitation hospital at a cost
of 350 dollars per day.

I'm now on homecare and receive visits and dressing changes three
times per week and have no idea what that costs.

MY COST TO ME AS AN INDIVIDUAL...... NOTHING.

I can't see how any American without health insurance can even afford
to have their tonsils removed let alone major surgery.

They cannot.
But if sick enough many get treated at someone else's expense
anyway. Usually after losing everything & with no hope for the future
(still in debt for life).
The later can easily happen even to the insured as well.

Unless, of course, you're a illegal Mexican. CA hospitals, by law,
cannot turn them away - for any reason.


good to see the bigots are still around comic relief


No bigotry intended, implied or stated. Facts are facts. CA spends
millions providing health care for illegal Mexicans. They even come over
the border to get free medical care, then go back!

Matt


True. Also true that Mexicans pay more into the general fund than they
take out in health care. It's a net profit for California just in dollars
then you must take in the value of cheap labor. Labor that unethical
growers often refuse to pay knowing the illegals won't go to the
authorities to collect upon.

Then there is the profit of cultural diversity, dining, and art.
