Anyone who cant afford to leave the country for real healthcare is negatively impacted by the failure of the American healthcare system. The rich get more then half their medical work done overseas.
"Capitalize upon their need to stay alive. The sick will pay any price they need to stay alive, until they grow sicker and need more of our medications.

Stop privatizing healthcare, Insurance companies already rip people off enough with auto insurance and homeowners insurance, so take the health insurance out of the equation and nationalize healthcare
I've had two collection calls this week for an annual deductible. One the bill itself was issued 12-1-2024 and due 12-29-2024. The second call came the day after making payment for the first. That bill had not even been issued. I thought collection calls only come after the date due!
Almost everyone said Luigi was with them during the time of CEO sh*oting. At the end of the day, Luigi is the one to go through all alone. Luigi went to fight the corporate companies all by himself for our good. How are we going to help him get out of this and also start a movement.
And? You don’t have to be a customer to have a grievance. Wait-are y’all trynna say that only paying clients are allowed to have criticism/feedback? That sounds *very corporate elitist* of y’all. Just saying.
“Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” So bogus. How the hell can someone be happy or pursue anything if they’re sick! If they die for someone else’s yacht! Yeah, you’re free, free to die or be in debt forever and still probably die. Healthcare is a human right! We have the resources, they just aren’t in the right places. SO MANY people have lost loved one or suffered for some out of touch rich psychopath. At least this news segment tried to touch on some of the grievances, instead of basically all the other ones gaslighting and lying. We aren’t stupid. This greed has got to go.
Two weeks ago I had a health problem, was taken to the hospital by ambulance, made several exams and got the treatment I needed. Walk out the next day. Total cost: 0€ How much it would be in the US?
THE TRUTH HERE IT IS as it’s behind the scenes information: Healthcare Systems/Hospital CEO & Leadership take large salary plus perks while understaffing all the clerical staff that process the claims. Over 50% of those entire claims never get touched or corrected. They get paid less than fast food workers and it’s been going on for decades! Every year they lay off clinical staff including doctors and the clerical folks that do majority of the paperwork. DOCTORS are quitting and fed up with leadership but don’t entirely stand up against them because they too are employees. I witnessed a whole office of doctors leave HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES are not regulated enough and government has allowed them to control healthcare through tedious prior authorization and claims denials when not justified. Practices are in place to intentionally delay and deny care. It’s strategic THIRD PARTY BROKERS , FMO, IMO are PIMPS in the sales side of these health plans. DIRTY BUSINESS AND MANY SCHEME TO SELL MOSTLY UHC FOR HIGHER COMMISSION AND KICKBACK. THESE FMO (s) are highly unregulated and need to be EXPOSED. Very unethical, dirty and takes advantage of Americans at large.
I will answer your question -- because a healthcare system should provide healthcare, not generate billions (that's BILLIONS with a B) in profit every year. That's why.
Of course we are angry. People dont go broke or get denied life saving care in just about every other modern country in the world. The US is the wealthiest but is 49th in quality if care in the world and cost at least twice as much for even basic medical care.
If you qualify the premiums are partially subsidized so while not near as good as universal healthcare it's much cheaper for an individual to get coverage.
There needs to be jury nullification not because his actions are condoned, but because they are symptomatic of a bigger societal issue that needs to be highlighted immediately!!
I would say the same thing is true about the housing industry, specifically for those who rent housing instead of purchase it. For too long stupidly large corporations have been mass purchasing rental properties and holding on to them, often unoccupied, abusing them as though they were commodities to be traded like stocks.
Does this really need an explanation? I mean, our healthcare system is one of the worst in the world. I once had to spend $350 with United healthcare insurance for my insulin. That’s a car payment. Average people can’t afford that kind of money for life-saving medication. The anger for our healthcare system is valid. And the United States better do something about it. Otherwise you’re gonna have even more angry citizens.
YES its Broken Never see same Dr. for more then 6 months then they leave or move .. They do what Insurance says never help or fight for the person They Never help just see ya in 3 months Nothing gets done
You have to have health insurance or the hospitals will increase what you owe. Even if the insurance does not pay their share, the hospital can only charge so much because they have an agreement with the insurance company. It called sleeping with the enemy.
@@nufamilia The ACA was written by United Health and other lobbyists. I read the whole thing as a physician. I quit. Perhaps that's why Nancy wouldn't disclose what was in it before passage.
The fact that you have to pay for parking at a lot of hospitals, should be enough to show the problem with these greedy insurance companies! NO ONE and I mean NO ONE on their day off is going to say "Hmmm I feel like going to the hospital today for no reason at all" 😑😴
Healthcare should be an entitlement where there is no interest in creating unregulated profits. Insurance is for extraordinary catastrophes, accidents, or occasions and is unregulated. Insurances have unrestrained profits. Unrestrained profits offer an incentive to give poor service.
And this is being treated as something that we couldn’t have seen? Talk to someone who was forced BY their Medical insurance company to find a primary care although there was found to be unnecessary and soon after they do find one then mysterious ailments begin to crop up. Then your life and free time is not your own. You're soon under fire from your employer for using your sick leave when you're scheduled for the myriads of Dr.'s appointments that will NEVER, EVER END. The trips to labs for blood tests upon blood tests. The pharmacy staff and you are on first name basis.. You used to be able to condense your medical bills AND the parking fees you had to pay on your taxes..... But no more!😮
I pay over half of my SS ck just for health ins. It's ridiculous. I had breast cancer & dbl mastectomy. Now I'm being told my Supplement won't cover any of my care even tho Medicare will pay 80%.
United States has the worst healthcare in the world. My sister had excellent healthcare insurance. Sh was fighting non-smoking lung cancer. She fought bravely for 7 1/2 years before passing. Her claims were being getting accepted less and less.
You are not talking about 'healthcare', you are talking about insurance or other means of PAYING for healthcare. I clicked on this video to see if medical protocols and treatments (ie healthcare) were going to be improved.
Our mission should be to remove the Private Insurance Companies who are raking huge profits and basically acting like the mafia. One payer- healthcare for all is the answer
It has allowed access to healthcare to millions, but the ACA has it's limitations by still going through the insurance companies. A government controlled system adds about 3-4% to the administrative costs whereas the current system adds almost 25%. Also the drug companies, pharmacy benefit managers, and insurance companies work together to keep all of their profits high while squeezing healthcare providers and patients.
Our legal system. Too expensive to enforce insurance contracts. Fix that and you'll solve many problems. Conflict of interest: My doctors' practice was bought by an insurance company. . Expectations, Many Americans feel entitled to have the government take care of them. Wishful thinking. Many want Britain's system. But talk with any Brit. who came here for our system. (in Britain, you "have" coverage but you just can't get on the schedule for treatment.)
How about massive deregulation including no more barrier to entry through licensing? In addition no more government mandated through violence requirements to have insurance. Side note employer supplied insurance started during WWII because the government implemented wage controls. Employers couldn't pay more actual wages so they came up with "health care benefits." Now you have a perverse incentive to charge more because there is a collective pot of money. And there is no such thing as price gouging. There is simply what the market will support.
No, all of Congress gets first class paid healthcare like all of us should get. Obamacare is much better than nothing, and should really be called Romneycare as he was the first to enact it as governor of Massachusetts.
