I still don’t get it. Is 100k the bill or his account balance after the bill was payed? And if it is the bill why is it listed under “other adjustments”?
I think 100k is the amount he still owes. Looks like he had a follow up or something that added $250 and insurance covered $175. Context is he had a seizure in the shower and was in the hospital for a month. A lot of plans you have co insurance after hitting your deductible where you split any further costs with the insurance company say 80/20. So it’s possible he only ends up paying $20k of that, or his bill was much higher and $100k is what he owes after co insurance
Most of those with a D next to their name are fighting just as hard against universal healthcare while collecting campaign donations from pharmaceutical companies anyway. Both parties are rotten servants to the capitalist class
Most of the people voting against universal healthcare are comfortably middle class and want to protect their ~premium coverage~ or they’re on Medicare. Few people struggling to afford healthcare even vote lol
No, most of the poor in red states don’t vote. That’s universally true across the country - there’s a small minority that do, but they’re not the ones stopping universal healthcare. It’s business owners, landlords, wealthy blue collar workers, farmers, and retirees.
This myth that the poor vote for their own oppression is something made up to make you hate poor people.
Poor people usually don’t vote, and when they do they usually don’t vote to the Right. I guess I’m just assuming that translates into things like universal healthcare. I need to go to work so I’m out of time to find out for sure though lol
Normally a kid isn’t going to a children’s hospital unless they’re super sick, think cancer etc. So they probably had an office visit and the other adjustments is their prior balance or something.

Usually there’s still an out of pocket max, like $5000.
But I guess that could depend on your insurance
It’s such a scam and the people voting against universal care are the same ones who complain they don’t go to the doctor because it’s too expensive
People are voting against universal health care? Do people other than hospital and Pharma owners actually vote against that?
Well, people who want universal healthcare have a D next to their name. That is enough for 10s of millions of Americans to blindly vote against it

No, we’re not going to both parties this discussion.

And tons and tons are poor in red srates

Ok then, I would love to see your information so I can understand it
So on universal healthcare I’m not sure, but based on party preference and voter participation it looks like right-wing poor people are a minority. There’s a linear relationship between voting and income and there’s a clear party preference based on income as well.

The hospital is charging the patient $100k. This is what’s left of the patients “tab”.
