Many who can't afford insurance or price-gouging hospitals-we see plenty of those patients. Market competition when allowed forces all to lower prices while maintaining or improving quality. GKS

I can’t believe my eyes
This American has Stage 4 Cancer, his insurance decided to no longer cover him. He went in for his chemotherapy anyway and received the bill
It’s $40,559.19 for one treatment. “One treatment, one doctor's visit and one blood draw. This is what I owe the hospital in order to go back. This is one visit. II'm not going to be able to do this for very long — No insurance. Still waiting”
For those unaware of this man’s situation he had insurance but was informed it was being cut off, he appealed
The average chemotherapy session in America can be anywhere from $2,000 with insurance to $15,000. A full course of treatment can easily cost up to $200,000
There are even documented cases of chemo drugs costing as much as $15,000-162,000 for brand name immunotherapy drugs in America
We need healthcare reform and we need it right now
For fun I looked up how much this would cost in Mexico it’s roughly 400%+ cheaper with sessions as low as $1,500 bucks….
These stories need massive attention because this could be any of us. Today it’s him, but tomorrow I can be me or you or a friend or family member. We need healthcare reform immediately
You don't have to roll into surgery without knowing the final cost to you or your family.

@BamaBonds My daughter received 3 degrees from SMU in 4 years, Economics, Political Science & Policy, landed a job in Austin last year! Plus, it’s the safest campus in the country! Regarding scholarships, they don’t focus on test scores, look for well rounded kids.
We have added a couple more positions.
CFO - Must have compliance experience as we must abide by significant regulatory requirements with our money flow. We will not consider anyone that does not have compliance experience.
General Manager, Negotiations - This is startup within a startup. We need someone entrepreneurial but has some operating chops. We are looking to take what we have internally, sharpen it, and transition it from a cost center to a profit center (lots of people outside of Crowd are looking for negotiations help).

@TimSweeneyEpic Cannot wait! I saw a gigantic black bear on the side of the road between Marshall & Hot Springs a couple of weeks ago, so glad I didn’t hit it:) Thank you for all that you are doing to preserve this area!
