I thought I was having a heart attack last September. I was scared of an ambulance bill and an ER bill, so I decided to drive myself to urgent care. I called my mom when the wait for urgent care was 125 minutes and told her I was scared and that I loved her. I'm 30. She told me to go to the ED now, and so I drove myself there too and almost passed out on the way, only staying awake by focusing and breathing as hard as I could. I know it was dangerous and stupid, but I've gotten a $700 ambulance bill before for less than a mile of driving, and I wasn't thinking straight.

It turns out that, no, I wasn't having a heart attack. I was having a string of PVC's due to stress, which made me feel faint, my chest felt achy and tight, my lungs felt like I wasn't getting any oxygen (because I wasn't), and I started panicking which made them worse. Between the ED trip and the followup cardiologist, EKG and Ultrasound, I owe $2800~ I owe POST insurance, and I have solid insurance compared to nearly all my friends. It would've been nearly $10k without insurance. My heart is fine, 100% in line with a healthy heart and absolutely no known defects. I never got a single med, surgery, or more than a few seconds at a time with any doctor. And I paid $2800 to know that, I'm a GOOD outcome, I shudder to think what it would've cost down the line if I had a defect or a disease and had to treat it. You're right, people shouldn't be scared to go to a doctor because of the cost.

Medicare for All, right fuckin' now. Bernie goddamn Sanders.

You’d better be glad the wait at urgent care was extremely long because they would have checked you in, generated an insurance claim, called an ambulance and sent you to the ED anyway. They are glorified walk-in PCPs and they have their place, but they absolutely cannot deal with anything resembling an emergency.

Brad Parscale has already made it pretty clear that they plan on putting together their own debates (presumably sponsored by conservative colleges, think tanks, magazines, etc.) and talk about how the typical debate committee is biased. So they'll skip the debates but attempt to make it look like Bernie's skipping their debates.

This dystopia where we literally live in totally separate media realities is pretty depressing.

Bernie has won both states yet trails in delegates.

The calm, intelligent adults think Pete will be buried in the South and out West, yet the will of the electorate also doesn’t seem to matter anyway so :shrug:

Imagine: no more “open enrollment” every year, no more surprise bills by doctors you never saw, no hunting for in network providers.

Imagine: being able to hold your newborn without a fee, being able to know you’ll always be able to get new glasses if yours breaks, being able to take your kids to the dentist.

All that is far more compelling than any economic policy label.

I had a 10min ENT visit a few weeks back and my charge, with insurance (no deductible met yet) was 280$.

I got the bill today and the pre-insurance charge for just the nasal endoscopy (literal 45 second exam of my nasal passage) was FIVE HUNDRED AND FOURTY loving DOLLARS.

The pre-insurance office visit was like 170-ish dollars for a grand total of like 710$. For ten minutes. A handful of questions. A brief nasal exam.

The loving system needs to collapse on itself if our politicians lack the political will to reform it. It is absurd.

I guess if we get to that point the party will collapse anyway. I know we predicted that with the GOP but shameless grifters will always bend the knee to hold power. The DNC is very very different and content being controlled opposition.

If Bernie wins Nevada, and it looks like he will, he very well could win SC (he’s been in striking distance in some of the last polls). If he wins the first 4 he is going to crush Super Tuesday. His national numbers have already up to nearly 30% in a massively divided field with the next closest down 10 points. Uninformed voters coalesce around the front runner. He will get a huge boost if he wins NV and SC. We’ve seen polls indicating Bernie is picking up steam with Black voters. He’s got a big lead in CA and is ahead in TX. He’s going to win my friend. Stop worrying but keep working.

This is a Solid Pep Talk.

Logically I feel like this is true too but man...

There isn’t a lot of overt Bernie steam in Chas. I’ve seen more Tulsi ads than Bernie. Hopefully he’s hammering rural black counties with ads since we are bluer than other counties.

A lot of the posts in the last few pages really scare me. My mom is 92, a lifelong republican, and is going to vote for Bernie. She’s healthy, and in good mental health as well. Do you honestly think that if she came down with cancer tomorrow, the doctors would advocate for aggressive treatment? Or, for that matter that she’d want it?

Maybe you’re being flippant or trying to be funny, but denying healthcare to elderly people just because they’re old is really pissing me off. Do the people that defended that Bloomberg clip honestly feel that way?

Healthcare is ‘rationed’ by triage. Always has been, always will be. No one is advocating for, or will currently, deny your mother healthcare because of her age—except maybe the republicans trying to get the US healthcare system.

However there will be serious and honest conversations about quality of life with aggressive treatment at her age.
