The medical industry sickens me.

In what other industry can you open a business, customers walk in for a service, you charge them WHATEVER the hell you want to AFTER the fact and if they dont pay whatever your price is, you completely ruin their credit?

The medical industry sickens me.

I just worked up a loan for a customer that is stuck at over 8% interest on a loan she can’t refinance out of because of her past medical bills. Now I have to call her and let her know shes stuck in this terrible loan and there is nothing I can do for her. It gets me so angry!

I went to the hospital, ER, I was there 4 hours, I was seen a total of 30 minutes, spent the rest of the time waiting around for my turn, I got a $2,500 medical bill.

RIDICULOUS! It cost me $950 to walk in the door of an emergency room where I waited 4 times longer than had I went to a regular doctor, I got 4 staples and a scan and the total was $2,500.

I want to know how the hell these costs are that high. Maybe, if prices weren’t ridiculous on medical expenses more people could afford to pay them.

I’m just really upset I have to tell this 65 year old woman I can’t help her.
