Originally posted by twhiteheadIf people have crap health insurance, which the Republicans would LOVE to foist off onto everybody (except themselves), yes, they CAN be "price-gouged" into poverty.
It must be noted that the patients do not pay for it, the government does.
There is no real risk of anyone being price gouged into poverty, but there is a risk of poor standards if oversight is not carried out properly.
A cancer diagnosis is the most common path for this.
