I’d never go outside again
Ngl those are pretty cheap medical bills by U.S. standards
[edit] Apparently, this article is a health-insurance ad. -‘Whoa is me because I lost my job and didn’t pay for the even-bigger ripoff program that would have covered part of my bill when a bat flew in my moth.’
I’d take a bat to the mouth to get away from that guy too
Why didn’t she apply to medicaid? Would’ve been cheaper and wouldn’t have had to wait
On Medicaid, you cannot have more than like $2,000 in assets, total. It’s much harder to qualify for than you think.
I can’t read the article because I have an ad blocker, so I’ll assume this means she’s been crowned the new Ozzy, and being a rockstar will help her with the bills.
I use uBlock Origin and I can read the article just fine.
She’ll need a credit card that’s got no limit, and a big black jet with a bedroom in it.
That’s American healthcare! Profit central.
Hey but at least they are free of that damn socialism, that’s worth fixing through the nose for!
What’s particularly annoying about this shit is the human rabies vaccine should not be the expensive… Not by a fucking long shot. It’s not much different than the one used on animals and that one of incredibly cheap.
The entire U.S. medical industry always smells off regarding their finances because it is off.
I got a rabies vaccine once and it’s cost me $1080 in total.
Insurance said they worked reimburse me, but they changed their mind step I submitted the paperwork to be reminded.
Fuck United healthcare
Just the vaccine series due to risk or the entire propylaxis after an encounter?
It was 3 injections I think and it was because I was visiting tropical country and the cdc website recommended a series of vaccines.
I mainly got them because insurance said they would reimburse it. But they didn’t and all in all I’m out $2000.
They even admitted that they told me they would reimburse it and they were wrong, but they still refuse to reimburse me.
Yeah so that’s just the vaccine itself no immunoglobulin . And you’re right the price is insane. For a killed virus rabies vaccine for animals it costs $20 a dose or less for just the vaccine. For administration it’s higher and varies but still, the price is just stupid.
If it was cheaper than people who needed it were willing to pay to not die, the manufacturers would be leaving money on the table. Which is maybe how they do things in Communist France, but this is the land of the free…
