One Family's Story of Health Care

Thanks for sharing your story Cassandra! My prayers goes to You, your Family and Your Sister. When an individual fall sick, he or she should never be obligated to be or play an attorney, lawyer or a financial accountant with piled papers forms and bills. That will definitely add to the patient stress and the stress will contribute to his premature death. The only solution for this America Health Death Panel dilemma is to form a National Non-Profit insurance/investment company to serve the people of America. You get sick, you go to the doctor or hospital for treatment. Not other thing will be asked from you except the simple questions about you and your medical history and condition.

My family Had health insurance when my sister had a catastrophic event that has left her in a wheelchair for the last ten years. She's been in and out of hospitals and I have seen things in that time that I would not have believed could happen in America because of health insurance.
Like a man's wife in an ICU with a swollen brain, who was transfered from intensive care because their insurance ran out. She died soon after and the man ran around the ICU, insane, accosting the other families in the pain of his loss. Is this what our country has become?

Nothing is as it was before! Keep on believing!

• There will never be a single payer healthcare system in America. Americans do not trust their government even though they freely elected their government. They would rather trust an insurance company than their freely elected government. It is okay for an insurance company to delay or deny their claim. It is okay for an insurance company to cause their bankruptcy or death from delayed or denied claims. But if a government run healthcare system funded by tax dollars gives away a free band aid to someone who didn't pay taxes that is far worse. Americans will never have a single payer healthcare system like most of the modern free world already has because Americans are stupid. Any politician who proposes a single payer system will die politically.

No one is fighting to keep a system like this.

The American people need to wake up for the fact that health care and insurance Corp of America will never, ever work. That was a mistake from the beginning and now we must cut the serpent's head or die alone. The people needs to have its own non-profit insurance owned by the people for the people and not by the Corp of America. The insurance Corp are not your friend and they will never be your friend because they will never understand that you are not a product for profit.

WOW. Insurance Companies need to be reformed, that is one of the roots to our Health Care crisis. First, the hospitals charge insane amounts of money for their practices. Secondly, these insurance companies are retaliating so they don't have to pay, which is the exact opposite they run their business for.

My mom almost died of Ecoli this summer. Thank God they saved her, but it has been a constant battle with the insurance companies. They tell her she shouldn't have let the doctors do this procedure and that one, when she was on vacation miles away and was so sick she had no choice and no energy to ask them anything!!!

Every insurance company that i have seen does not cover their clients even remotely the way they should be. That's our hard earned cash!!!! Theives....
