I know next to nothing about the differences in health care etc :x

I'm extremely lucky in the sense that my bff works in healthcare, so I don't have to understand it, she's got it covered xD

In healthcare, America is an odd duck, and not in a good way.

Although for my disease specifically, we have better care, sort of. That is, if you’re willing to travel, in general.

I recently almost got stuck with a $500 er bill because the hospital didn’t bill right.

It’s really dumb.

We complained a lot and they fixed it, but it was a pain.

A couple of times I went to the emergency room and I got like 1500 bill each time. And then ambulance rides are like 500.

It's awful.

To be honest a lot of the time I just don't pay those bills. I don't make any money and we're barely surviving on Kevin's income. It sucks. My credit is HORRIBLE. lol.

Ouch.:c

The way America treats people who need medical care is like “lol too bad for you, now pay up.”

Too true. I think that the US is like that with everything though. Like need food? Nope, pay a bunch of money. Need housing? Nope. Live on the street.

I guess the healthcare is just so noticeable because it leads to lots of troubles with everything else.

And let’s be super judgemental if someone needs -gasp- government help! Look at my precious taxes being wasted!
