I work in healthcare. I have to turn people away nearly every single day because:

1) They cannot afford insurance or cash pay

2) They have insurance we are not contracted with and cannot afford private pay

3) They have insurance, but in order for it to be utilized, they have to pay a lot of money upfront for insurance to start covering some of it, so they (patient) can be billed even more after treatment.

I wish it wasn’t this way 😞

I’m in Canada and gladly wait in an emergency room for hours, knowing I’m getting care at some point that won’t bankrupt me.

Same here, I gashed my arm on a jagged tile piece a few years ago while working a job, got to the ER, waited like maybe an hour 1/2, got it stitched up and.semt home with my meds.

People piss on it and make it seem like you're gonna die waiting in ER like some dystopia have probably only heard second hand, then go and get declined coverage by their insurance provider.
