It is controversial argument on medical expenses

Tweet

It can be controversial, and it can be a debatable topic for most American citizens to concern as the upcoming elections is up. Medical expenses and the medical insurance can be a headache for all of us, we should find a better solution to it, or some people just go without insurance and can't afford to see the doctors. A friend of mine who just had surgery 4 months ago, finally he couldn't keep up with the medical bills, and his final decision, as he told me last week, is to file for bankruptcy to refresh the bad credit history that he got. He told him, before the surgery on his back, he has to pay $2,000 upfront in order for the hospital to do that surgery, which left him only $5 for 2 weeks to spend. He has to ask around to pay that 2 grand. After the surgery, another $10,000 bill sent to his home, which he may not be able to pay for it. As he tried to work out a payment term with the hospital administrative office, he wants to pay $100 per month, but that proposal was not acceptable. Now, with so much owe to the medical bill, he finally has to file a bankruptcy as the last resort. So, what should we do about it?
