Loading ...Not all hospitals were private. Public hospitals appeared to have a bad reputation and were more overcrowded than private. In 1986 they passed laws they couldn’t deny care. This hurt private hospitals it appeared. It hurt all hospitals because of the close gap of free service and profits were close. I’m guess those where free service by non paying costing more than profits causes closures. My limited understanding is that Public hospitals got tax paid subsidies that private didn’t get. So it’s my guess that after that law was passed it was a matter of survival in some areas with a lot of concentrated poor to become non profit or public. Method threw both paying and non paying in the same boat or waiting room.
This is one reason why changing Obama care has to be careful. If the cut insurance to the poor the burden will fall on hospitals thus causing even more overcrowding of others.
At the same time the young with kids especially who are working class are not going to get these benefits. What is it telling them? It’s telling them don’t make to much money, you can’t afford it or it will bring on a lot of free hours of work to pay for something you might not even need. A middle class family shouldn’t have to pay 1000 plus a month plus have hearty deductibles.Thats insane. That’s what Obama care caused. It’s not worth it to them nor taking the chance if their child gets sick they won’t be able to afford the care, tests, or medicine because of the deductible. Add rising cost of housing and food.
To make it worse imagine sitting there with a sick child in a high immigrant town having to wait hours or in pain because of people who aren’t supposed to even be here and aren’t going to pay blocking you from timely care while you did. Another part of the domino effect.
