[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe a public plan for catastrophic health care. Stroke, heart attack, cancer, etc. Everything else you pay out of pocket.[/quote] Good luck to the middle class. Dr's charge $120 for an office visit; mammos $200+. Broken bones trip to ER $1000+.[/quote] My DH took my kid to three ER for a suspected broken bone and he accidentally gave them an old inactive insurance card. They were there for less than two hours—there was no broken bone after all—and the bill was over $4,000. I almost passed out when I saw that.[/quote] They charge this because most people use insurance which negotiates to get the actual price reduced. If everyone had to pay out of pocket the charges would have to come down. [/quote]
