We need to institute a national health insurance system that allows all to benefit from it.

Case in point. I know a guy that does carpet, tile, wood flooring installs. I asked him to stretch a carpet this week. While he was doing it, he said he to go to the hospital for back and side spasams. He had no insurance, the hospital charged him $7500 for the emergency room and he has not gotten the bill for the cat-sacn, xrays, and blood work. HE HAS TO PAY THE FULL LOAD. If you have insurance, the negotiated payment from the insurance company is probably a thousand or two. My wife went to The Villages regional emergency room thinking she was having a heart attack. Billed amount $7000, amount accepted by the hospital from the insurance company $800.

SO why should he have to pay the full load?

We currently pay $900 a month down from $1450 before my wife went on Medicare. BUMMMER
