@wickednwyld all true but if the ACA is repealed by the courts now Bernie Sanders will be president in 2020 because the GOP will be exposed as the heartless "caplistist" criminals they are putting their own greed over the lives of citizens. Everyone knows our healthcare system is broken. Even insurance companies have written briefs to the supreme court telling them don't kill the ACA. They know it will be the end of their criminal enterprise.

@MoonShadeStuff no clue but it sure does sound like it to a layman. We believe in free market extortion here.

@tonyfat2458 wrong Ronald Reagan passed the law that makes it illegal for the emergency room to turn you away for inability to pay. So he would have had to go to the emergency room like anyone else who can't afford a doctor. Then file medical bankruptcy. At which point the hospital would pass thousands of dollars in charges to cover their losses onto the paying customers. So you can thank Ronald Reagan and the GOP for the fact that people who can't afford our extortion priced healthcare have to get the most expensive form of it paid for by everyone else after filling bankruptcy.

Insurance companies refusing to cover the care of a in network doctor should be illegal. They are fraudulently selling you snake oil.

"Free market" caplistist have no place in healthcare. Setting the price of a service to what the market will pay when your life depends on that service is not moral it is extortion.

@MoonShadeStuff his would be in the 100-150 range in your example. They are the custom made verify not the off the shelf kind. But still it is crazy expensive in the usa.
