    I hope you realize what he is talking about every single American deals with and I think you missed the part where he is fortunate and this is literally the best case scenario (outside of being rich enough to not give af.)

      I do, yes. I’ve read reams and reams of accounts, comments, and articles about the hardships experienced under the current healthcare model in America over the past few decades. The exact costing metric was never addressed though, which is why I asked about it specifically. The whole enterprise of for-profit medicine as carried out under the current insurance model is criminal and immoral by any measure.
