"Who among us has not had that situation?" she continued. "Where you got to wait for approval, and the doctor says, 'Well I don't know if your insurance company is going to cover this.' Let's eliminate all of that. Let's move on."


Because National Health isn't going to make you wait.

Longer

    National reimbursement. Canadians overwhelmingly prefer their system to ours. Cue the anecdotes and likely apocryphal stories in . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . 1

    If you get a good plan you never have to deal with the health insurer.

    I have Blue Cross and never had any problems. And we have had significant medical expenses. Of course expecting Blue Cross to have the scintillating record of the VA is too much.

    I should have the choice to use private insurance and if they say no I should have the choice to pay cash

    All of which the storm troopers on the left need to eliminate to take all the money and be worse than insurance

    And yes Canadians flood Seattle hospitals due to long waits. And yes government care by definition will have "death panels" just like Insurance does. The difference being there is no other option

    Hondo claims there's no evidence that countries with socialized healthcare have longer waiting periods.

    Don't know if that claim came from poor reading comprehension or if his news source lied to him.

    I've recently had a root canal and crown (cost me $22 out of pocket)

    Went to the doctor recently for pneumonia, paid $200 for the visit because I was below my $1300 deductible, and paid $13 for the antibiotics. Kind of sucks on the $200 doctor visit, but I knew what to expect since I actually read my benefits before I signed up. It's HARD

    My doctor was giving me shit about insurance today. I said we really don't want to go there

    70$ cop pay and 60 bucks of pills cash. I think I'm up to 3 or 4 grand a month for insurance thanks to all the fixing that has happened

    He's like you're 62 now and you need it. I said I don't need a cabinet full of drugs like you did to my mom because she was old

    He also told me I am going to have a stroke so I relented to some high blood pressure medicine

    If I disappear you know why
