The average American family pays $500 a month for the most basic insurance. If they’ve had an illness like cancer they become exempt from any treatment for future cancer. If you have diabetus when you start your policy, you will be exempt for diabetic treatment and any illness that could be related to diabetus. Medical insurance doesn’t insure you will be accepted for treatment and if you are not insured, a general GP visit could cost $100 and a prescription for something like an asthma would set you back $5,000 a year.
Deaths in America from the lack of affordable medical care is worse than most 3rd world countries. Do you really think its a good idea to follow their lead?
