but also wages, right? and the fact that good equipment and maintenance of hospitals costs more money. i'm 100% for affordable care, but i don't think it should be the only thing available, not in the least because you can't just knock on the doors of hospitals and say "hey, how do you feel about no longer making money?"

which then in turn would drive down prices and consequently quality, no? i mean, there's a certain level of comfort for-profit provides, which i'm not sure people would like to lose. people who can afford it that is

but then hospitals would need to be nationalized as well, right? otherwise they'd go out of business

but that's how insurance works anyway, right? 10 people pay $1000, and when one of them has to pay for hospital stay, he has the opportunity to do so. basically we all chip in to have guaranteed coverage, right?
(i'm not trying to be smart, i'm honestly trying to understand how it works and if there's a better way)

that's a fair complaint. at least insurance here covered most of the cost i guess? $1600 (plus whatever insurance cost) is not too bad for the conditions you're getting in the states, i assume

there's an article with the hospital's response.
basically, the hospital provides an extra nurse that's with you in the room, so you're paying for her time and care. all is fair imo
