Reply #32: One trip to the Emergency room [View All]

via ambulance because you stop at a "doc in the box" without insurance and it can cost 1000s. I know, because without health insurance at one time in my life I went in complaining of a chest pain - in the center of my chest. Ended up being a deviated septum or something, heartburn kind of thing. The doc in the box I went to was kiddy corner to a hospital. They said cause I was in their care, that I need to be ambulance transported across the street and could not "walk over" or get a ride. That little ride cost 600.00 alone. I had heartburn for cripes sakes. IT is a travesty what happens in this developed country wherein folks can't afford healthcare and can't afford glasses. I use large fonts... Just sayin again. Sad.
