I’m Canadian. And I’m already sorry for asking an ignorant question.
I know you have to pay for hospital visits in the states. I know lower economic status can come with lower access to birth control and sex education. But then, how do they afford to give birth? Do people ever avoid hospital visits because they don’t feel like they can’t afford it?
Do hospitals put people on a payment plan? Is it possible to give birth and not pay if you don’t have the means? How does it work in the states?
How does it all work?
Again. Canadian. And sorry.
You generally don’t pay for hospital visits 95+% of people have some form of insurance that would cover the vast majority of the cost for going to hospitals for giving birth.
95% of people have insurance? Does not caring about medical debt you’ll never pay count as insurance now, because thats the only way that number makes sense. Unless i missed your point, which im known to do.
Sorry it was 91.4%
The question asked was what the other 8.6% do. That’s a big number btw. You talk like it’s not a significant number but it absolutely is.
I don’t think that was the question. I interpreted it as them saying they thought it was higher than that.
Go back and read the original post. Not the discussion in this comment thread, but the question you answered originally. OP asked what do poor people that can’t afford healthcare do. You answered that most people can afford it which is a mobster way of answering the question.
No the question was about poor people without money, not people without insurance.
