Change needs to happen to the U.S. Healthcare system so that these incidents just stop. This change is not going to happen on its own without people driving change. So you and I agree that change is needed, and action is necesary but what should be the course of action? > Here's a sensible solution: when it comes to emergency-based care, insurers must accept all comers as in-network. There's no such thing as "out of network" emergency-related care. Ah. I see you have good intentions but what you are saying is "Hospitals should be allowed to get paid whatever they charge and insurance companies should pay it" Do you see the problem?

As a person who's extremely passionate about driving change in the U.S. Healthcare system, I communicate a lot with people who have falled on hard times due to a medical bill. Here are two scenarios for you: https://www.quora.com/Recently-my-husband-visited-the-ER-in-the-US-due-to-almost-bleeding-out-were-citizens-and-have-insurance-The-bill-is-24-000-USD-We-do-not-have-that-kind-of-money-What-can-we-do https://www.quora.com/Recently-my-husband-visited-the-ER-in-... https://www.quora.com/Why-did-the-doctor-charge-me-3600-hr-to-drain-my-swollen-elbow https://www.quora.com/Why-did-the-doctor-charge-me-3600-hr-t... When people ask me what I think is "wrong" with the health care in the USA, my answer surprises them: Nothing is wrong with the health care in the USA. It is one of the very best in the world for those who can afford it. The issue is that one should not have to look unexpectedly to a life completely ruined because they suddenly fell sick or got into an accident - they should be able to pick up their lives when they need to do it the most and go on from there.
