@SecKennedy I went to the ER a couple months ago, spent no more than 2 hours from check-in to discharge, never seen by a physician, only a nurse, nurse assistant and I believe NP. During the two hour visit, I was either placed in a waiting room or in the hallway, not an actual emergency room.
They took a few vials of blood, gave me an IV and meds, sent me home. After my insurance paid their portion, I had an out of pocket bill for $2,094. They charged $750 for an IV bag. There has to be change.
@patrickbetdavid Not all of us are chosen ones to have kids. For some of us, it wasn’t an option. We didn’t get to make the choice not to have kids, we just couldn’t have kids. IVF/other medical options failed many of us. I am one and I am very happy with not having kids now!
