As a Canadian, I will always find that absolutely unbelievable about American private health care ..... when someone or a family is at their lowest and during the most terrible times of their lives and health care people go up to them and say ..... 'We're sorry for your suffering and your loss ..... but here's the medical bill you owe money on'

I think I was in my twenties before I found out that children have to pay for their healthcare. It just seems …insane. And inhumane.

I had numerous health issues as a child, had them all sorted at no cost. Anything else seems weird.
