Break Hw

When I talked to my mother about health care she responded saying very proudly that we are covered completely. She explained how the insurance company takes a portion of her paycheck every pay period. When something is wrong my mother encourages us to go to the emergency room or to get checked out. I would say that we have spent a decent amount of time in the emergency room. An incident happened a few years ago when I had to get several stitches and my brother has sickle cell. And so far we have never been denied treatment. As far as I know there hasn't been any trouble over who will pay bills it all seems to be taken care of already. For checkups we pay a small co-pay after the visit but besides that I'm not really sure of how payment happens. I have had many wonderful visits to very loving doctors where there was never a problem about pay.

When I watched SiCKO honestly I was amazed because I haven't been in a situation like that or situations close to that. I mean I knew that America isn't all that great but I didn't think that anything like that could happen. I never really gave much thought to the medical system until last week because I never really had to deal with it. Apparently when there are children on the medical plan they can be covered until they are 21 but if they are not in school they will only be covered until they are 18. They film did successfully show all the evil points in medicare but most likely it had to have some bias in it. But all in all my reaction was complete shock.
