[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5894928, member: 58386"] Let's try this another way. Every person at sometime in their life will need skilled nursing care. Now when you go to a skilled nursing facility after the 21 days of full Medicare and 90 partially paid care it becomes full self pay until that person is down to just $2500 in personal assets before they can get Medicaid. That means you give them your house, your car, your bank account , your savings your pension and that goes to pay your care until all you've got left is $2500. Now why don't hospitals require the same for people with no insurance? Make them post a security deposit the size of which will depend on the estimated cost of the procedure. No security deposit no procedure It would be like posting an escrow. You keep $2500 and if there's anything left after the procedure the balance is refunded to you. BTW Why does it not apply to you? What if the nation's social welfare system had collapsed earlier and not there for you in your time of need what would you have done if instead you would have had to post that security deposit? The people FDX kicking back out into the economy could find themselves with a medical emergency similar to yours. If so should they be denied public benefits. If you believe they should be state your reasons. [/QUOTE]
