I'm not sure if you know how hard a surprise 10-20K bill can be. And some out of pocket maximums are huge (generally, the worse the plan is)
- missedthecue 3y agoI know people get huge bills. Meeting that $4k or $5k oop is tough for the average person. It's the hundreds of thousands or millions of debt that I don't get.
- tmpz22 3y agoWhat about the people who don’t fight it? Folks who don’t know how the system works or get an especially aggressive billing department? Folks who are depressed or suffer from mental illness? These systems aren’t in place for the people who fight back. They’re in place for the people who give up.
