I was referring to 'extreme' health care incidents. I don't consider it fraud if a person has their back against the wall fighting for their life, and on top of that is dealing with a system that prefers surgery to stem cell injections because of the extra operating room hours that it can bill. Just my personal interpretation.
- ajross 8y agoAnd my point was that "extreme" health care incidents represent only a small part of treatments needed, and that people NEED INSURANCE, not to be told "it's OK, you can just not pay". Your point about "fraud" is just a nitpick over a moral vs. legal definition of the term, and it too isn't helping anyone live a happy life. Get. Insurance.
- crazynick4 8y agoBelieve it or not, even with the ACA, not everyone can afford it. $150 a month is too much if you're making 15K a year, or around that number + you have children. If I was still in that income bracket when the ACA came out I would have simply had to take the fine and have it wipe my tax return because there was really no other way.
- ajross 8y agoThen the proper advice becomes "get your ass out there and vote for a party that will preserve and protect your access to health care" and not "hur, dur, it's all good, you don't have to pay!"
