we already had one illegitimate Hawaiian baby as President. it ain't going to work again no matter how much money you pay our healthcare system.

spoiler alert: they're not going to pay for it.

Lol

canadians reproduce? maybe we should rethink that whole ddt idea

When I was born there was thalidomide being prescribed in Canada. I understand that they have still been manuacturnig and marketing it all these years on prescriptions, especially in poorer countries, and continue to refuse to admit to responsibilty for all the thalidomide babies.

I started off thinking that perhaps it would be funny to call braden a thalidomide baby, but actually its not funny at all.

So I'll just call him Bob

SUCK IT CANADA!

ALSO SUCK IT INSURANCE!

getafix: i laughed, so it worked on one level at least

Thats good braden, its good to keep a sense of humour. See ya at the pool!

I do not understand how you guys put up with this - a healthcare system thats rip you a new one!
It's like.. when on earth are you guys going to finally put those greedy bastards against the wall and shoot them? It's overdue a revolution!

6 weeks of hospital care for mum:
6*7 = 42 days
2 months of neonatal care for baby:
2*30 days = 60 days
in some other article it said it was by Caesarian section
somehow this all add's up to almost a million dollars..


In europe:
42 days of care for mum - 520/540e per day, I'll count it at the more expensive one
540 * 42 = 22 680e
Intensive care for newborns @ 2690e/day
2690 * 60 = 161 400 euros
Birth by Complicated Caesarian Section - 4200e one time cost
Grand cost to state: 188 280
amount charged parents - you don't want to know, a fraction of that thanks to universal healthcare
but the true cost is still 240 000$, a quarter of the cost of Hawaii. This $240k is the "comparable" cost, the price the parents would pay is like I said earlier, so small you don't want to know.

But how on earth do you guys put up with a system that charges you 4x more??
Do they have nobel-prize winning brain surgeons on 24x7 standby at the bedside?
I get the idea of the hospital needing to make a profit, but that would account for a 20-30% margin on goods and services sold not 400%.

The hospital also needs to operate an over-sized billing department to deal with all of the disparate insurance companies and get their claims sorted out, so there's a loss to that. Then, occasionally claims will be denied and hospitals either have to suck up the loss (which increases prices for all other services) or take either the insurer and/or patient to court (which increases the prices for all other services). They also get to operate a collections department, or hire an outside collections agency.

It isn't too hard to see how it escalates when you consider the extra costs the US incurs by going with insurance to pay for health care rather than using single payer. The saddest part about Obamacare is that, for all of the good it does by bringing health care to the previously uninsured, it cements this parasitic system in place.

no, that is the president who lied about being both american and not mooslim.
