Why Are Insured Americans Still Drowning in Medical Debt?
If you thought owning health insurance in America meant you could at least avoid selling a kidney to pay for your last kidney stone, think again—turns out, a full third of us are still tangled up in medical debt even with coverage . Honestly, is it really “health” insurance if the only thing it covers is your descent into financial mayhem? Sometimes I wonder if our insurance cards should just double as “IOU”s… and don’t get me started on those itemized hospital bills—$74 for a single tissue? Honey, if my medical debt racks up any higher, I’ll have to take out a second mortgage on my sense of humor . What’s your hot take: revolution, resignation, or just a good laugh before the bill collector calls again? Desperate for a little more insight (and maybe another tissue)? LEARN MORE.
A new survey found that one third of Americans who have health coverage still have medical debt that they are paying off over time. What do you think?
“Yeah, but the other two out of three are probably living high off the hog.”
Ernie Prince, Biscuit Slicer
“If there was a better way to provide healthcare surely another country would have figured it out.”
Rebekah Melton, Diving Board Tester
“Look, just take the stents back and we’ll call it square.”
Marco Ochoa, Playground Supervisor
