So unless you have medical insurance you can't get medical treatment anywhere no matter what? If that's true you're living in the wrong country my friend
Technically they can't refuse to treat you at the emergency room but they will just bill you thousands of dollars later.
If you have insurance you just past a small fee like $20 but not having it would cost about $100 and up front. Though I may have to go anyway cause I feel like crap.
Yes. You just keep accruing debt and it messes up your credit. I don't think they can add interest to medical bills at least. I just switched jobs and I don't qualify for their insurance.
My mom said she would help me out this morning so I'm going to a clinic. thnx though!
Definitely bankrupt! I know a few people who lost their home cause of cancer treatments.
And there are a lot of mentally I'll homeless and vets who probably got messed up killing folks in the military. :(

That's a terrible system: are you in the US? What happens if you don't pay and really can't pay?

Oh that's good, I hope you get some answers and appropriate treatment.
So those stories about people in the US becoming homeless or bankrupt because of medical bills aren't exaggerated?
