If you were sick could you pay to get treatment?!


Question: Hell no! I can barely afford the insurance premiums for healthcare to cover my daughter. Those premiums also don't include the 6 prescription medications I take on a daily basis & the 2 prescription medications or the 1 OTC medication she takes on a daily basis. Or co-pays for Dr. visits. Oh, & the insurance doesn't include dental (there's a separate premium for that & separate co-pays) & absolutely no vision insurance. That's all out of pocket. There'd be no way. I can't afford to get sick & miss a day of work, let alone be able to pay additional medical bills for a serious illness!

it depends on the sickess - yes

It really depends on the illness, but yes you could pay for treatment.

Yes, it is called self pay and they may even give you a discount if you pay in full or set up a payment plan.

No. I have no insurance or medical plan. If I was to get sick, my medicines or treatments would be from the local herb store or GNC. Many times I have tried to get around going to the doctor.
