nice nickel and I hope things go ok for you on the 29th. 

We paid 890.00 a month for COBRA three years ago, that was on a 3600.00 a month income.  Ouch.

All the more reason for single payer universal health care, not health insurance. 

and before anyone flames me, what are you gonna do if you don't have a job and insurance and you get injured or ill?  Die?

Agreed. 


Health Care Problem in this country came into clear focus for me the first and only time I ever found myself in the emergency room outside the US.  The total cost of my ER visit and two prescriptions ran under 300 Euro.  If I were an Austrian citizen, it would've been no cost.  And I waited about 1 hour 15 mins. (It was Serious, but did not require immediate care.) 

Compare this to my ex-girlfriend's experience here a year or two ago (the last ER visit I had anything to do with...).  She had a window fall on her arm and cut her wrist badly.  I drove her to the ER and she was bleeding all over my car, the floor of the ER.  Had to help fill out the paperwork for her.  She waited and waited at the ER.  One other person in the waiting room late at night.  She was NEVER called.  Eventually after THREE HOURS of waiting, we'd managed to get the bleeding stopped--so we told the lady at the desk that we were leaving.

THEN--THE NEXT MONTH, WE GET A BILL FROM THE HOSPITAL--A $75 FEE FOR "PROCESSING" HER PAPERWORK.  


aa-I feel for you.  I am currently uninsured, and hoping my health will hold out for a while. 


I'm there for ya if you ever need anything.  Just drop me a line.
