One CEO gets murdered and corporate Shill media circles the wagons. Millions of Americans file bankruptcy due to medical bills and the same media gives zero fucks.
America, What a country.

right but you're equating socialized health care costs with socialized health insurance costs, ignoring the fact that this socialized insurance is paying exorbitant rates because they're paying private doctors who can charge whatever they want lol

in the UK, the NHS owns the hospital and employs the doctor. there is no middleman.

No they don't, the CMS set the reimbursement rates, which are different for medicare and medicaid, and the costs for accepting lower payment from them get passed onto other patients paying privately just to make any money, which is why fewer doctors are accepting new patients at those rates, or capping the number they'll accept at all.

You've shifted from murdering insurance company executes will solve the problem, to now wanting the government to confiscate hospitals and doctors' offices and force them to be government employees for a 40% pay cut, and why would anybody spend the time and money to go through medical school, residency, just to end up heavily in debt for a pretty mediocre income? You can't very well charge the same amount for schooling, but just chop them out and remove the payoff for doing it.

It’s one thing to describe behavior as toxic or disgusting. It’s another thing to call someone such things. It isn’t Christian no matter how you spin it. Instead you should attempt to reach them, not repel them. You are setting a terrible example.

The guy's not all there. You can tell he's just a really angry dude with very limited knowledge and tends to lash out and project that onto others when his knowledge hits a wall. It's certainly not productive or useful to anyone, but it's pretty standard for a lot of these types of guys.

He’s a very strange guy for sure. I have a hard time with the way he berates people and then justifies it as consistent with his Christian faith. It’s so dirty.

"just to make any money" yeah because the people running the facilities are paying up 3 times what doctors in other countries pay for equipment and medication, even those produced in the USA. they also have a profit incentive passed down to them from shareholders who want to see their wealth increase.

by no means am i shifting to that. that is always the goal.

and why would anybody spend the time and money to go through medical school, residency, just to end up heavily in debt for a pretty mediocre income? You can't very well charge the same amount for schooling, but just chop them out and remove the payoff for doing it.

this is true and also the precise reason that medical school would become cheaper

People arguing there’s “anti-rich propaganda” is peak subservience. Good job you submissive little serfs. Can’t let your betters get their hands dirty by having to defend themselves from the common folk.

I was looking through old bookmarked pages I had and saw this.

UnitedHealth uses AI model with 90% error rate to deny care, lawsuit alleges

For the largest health insurer in the US, AI’s error rate is like a feature, not a bug.

arstechnica.com

"According to the Stat investigation and the lawsuit, the estimates are often draconian. For instance, on a Medicare Advantage Plan, patients who stay in a hospital for three days are typically entitled to up to 100 days of covered care in a nursing home. But with nH Predict, patients rarely stay in nursing homes for more than 14 days before receiving payment denials from UnitedHealth.


When patients or their doctors have requested to see nH Predict's reports, UnitedHealth has denied their requests, telling them the information is proprietary, according to the lawsuit. And, when prescribing physicians disagree with UnitedHealth's determination of how much post-acute care their patients need, their judgments are overridden"

Those people who are kicked out of nursing homes are just being anti-rich since that seems to be the new corporate shill media talking point that now MaGA Rubes are parroting.
Health insurance is great in this country and any one complaining about it makes you a communist who hates the rich.
Time to embrace the second coming of the Gilded Age and hopefully the elite will trickle down some of their wealth to us peasants.
