It's better to own 2.5M Hospital

Please be honest about it and display what the Americans ACTUALLY PAY, and not just initial bills that support your incomplete understanding of how the American third-party payment system works. For example, remember to include the fact that an American doctor can send a patient a bill for $100 knowing that the patient’s insurance carrier has pre-negotiated a fee of $60, and the doctor has accepted, and the “unpaid” $40 gets marked as the doctor’s business loss against revenues at tax time. Please also be honest and include comparisons of quality of care complete with successful outcome rates. You might also discuss malpractice insurance in America, including but not limited to frequency of litigation and average settlement amount. In other words, please tell the WHOLE TRUTH. Don’t be a clown looking for cheap clicks.

In India medical technologist's who doing ct MRI their salary is 20000-30000 rupee/month .IN us and other Western country they pay 30-50 dollars/per hour .so that's why it is so expensive.

An MRI can cost upwards of 3 million, and costs 10k a month for it to just stay operational. It has to be housed in a special room due to the huge magnetic fields it generates. The people who operate and maintain it are professionals who get paid 6 figure salaries. If you are scanned by a modern MRI then it is not going to be cheap.

@@Tugela60 I wonder how literally every other country in the world does it. Just had an MRI done two weeks ago for like a $100

@ansazeem1234 They do it through subsidies from taxpayers and lineups. Not everything will qualify for access to the machine and then only in emergencies. Basically rationing. In the US it is not rationed, but you have to pay for that privilege. So, you get better access, faster access and more modern machines. In a managed health care system one in a hundred people who might benefit from an MRI scan will wait in a line to get one, while in a commercial health care system they can get access immediately if their doctor wants the result for any reason, provided they can pay for the costs associated with that immediate access.

​@Tugela60 3 milion is in the very high end, and even if it cost 2mil a year to run, and you only do very complicated exams that last 2h and you only do 3 per day in average, at 7k per exam you still net 53mil or about 5.3 milion per year considering a 10 year lifetime for the machine. The grand river hospital (public) in ontario canada added one mri for 1.3mil, and planned to do 4500 scans per year with it, and in a cbc article they say that the running costs for 27 mri in ontario is 20mil, so it would come to about 195$ CAD per scan, wich makes sense as the average cost to do a private mri in canada was 780$ CAD in 2020 according to CADTH. Do you see the problem ?

@c0nct3d That is a MRI in a public health system, they will be more heavily used than one in a private system, so the cost per patient in private settings is likely considerably higher. The reason for this is that in a public system you are triaged and wait your turn, while in a private system it is always available, meaning it is sitting idle most of the time. In addition there are invisible costs which are absorbed up front by other parts of public systems, such as overhead, construction of the specialized spaces to house the machines etc etc. In a private system that all has to be paid for by the person receiving the service, which can add up to a considerable amount. On top of that you have to add the financing costs on the initial investment, something public systems do not include since there are no financing costs in the public system, at least not ones that the health care system pays, it is covered by general government revenue. Finally, whoever made the investment wants an annual return on it. The profits get taxed as well, so what the patient pays has to include that. These private institutions do not return 10,000% annual profits to their owners, the real number is much lower, more like 10 - 20% at most. The rest is spent on running the facility and paying various taxes. What you see in these bills for private health care is the REAL cost of on demand health services. Public systems do not provide on demand services, in many cases you need to wait, often for long periods of time, and the incidental costs are absorbed into general public budgets so you are not usually aware of them.

Q

I have to admit I am in shock. I mean, my mum got breast cancer and went to Tata Medical Hospital (it is governed by the TMC trust), did her surgery, and got an amazing room to stay in for 2 days, 8 months of chemo, and regular 3 months of doctor visit after the chemo end and all of that came in around $4500 and I thought that was quite a lot, now reading yours I can't help thinking. It wasn't bad at all 😳

the sadest thing is that I am pretty sure your country HAS the money to afford cheap healthcare for everyone but they would rather spend money financing wars. I live in Brazil which is a poor country compared to USA and the healthcare here is free and getting better every year.

No wonder salaries in the US are so much larger than most of the rest of the world. If they weren't, I bet Americans would just die out from common cold.

​@volkana1977 well the thing is we spend 600-750 BILLION dollars per YEAR on our military. we have the money, but we decided being the world's police force is better than free health care. it's quite ridiculous.

“I might be in horrible pain for the rest of my life, and broken in body, but at least I can still eat instant ramen because I didn’t go to the hospital.”

That is true at times. Same with Mexico. But regulations and base medical requirement regulations are very different in the two countries. Same with worker benefit coverage requirements and facility quality. There are reasons why the costs are different beyond simple "profit" issues. There are also different price points that can be acquired here in the U.S.A. for most procedures. People here travel among the states here for the same reason. Prices are not monolithic here.

There is also this idea been put into American patients that having procedures outside US is very bad and you will have so many life threatening complications, so ppl are often discouraged from it. Ad if approximately 6.5 billion ppl can't survive outside US. As a nurse in US, i have seen plenty of ppl who return with infections and other complications here who had surgeries here in US even after all the " Surgical Care Interventional Protocols with pre op Antibiotics, blood clot preventions etc. So its just individual results varying. Bottom line is US healthcare cost is very high but some people refuse to admit it, as soon as you talk about it, they politicize it talking about socialism and communism etc... Some of these are people who literally will argue at a grocery shop checkout line over some coupons. Having said the there is some Medical tourism that happens here.

@@jakobinobles3263 A grave is typically leased for 25 to 100 years. If you do not renew at that time they will either bury someone on top or remove you for someone else. Its how they maintain costs to keep the graveyards clean and such as well as save space. Ie. No one remembers you at some point they will replace you.

@@jakobinobles3263 This is true. It's at Cemetery discretion. In the US at least, because Cemeteries own the land that you are purchasing the right to bury in, they still have the right to do what ever it is they please with their own land. Technically a cemetery in the US may choose to reclaim a cemetery plot at any point simply by claiming that the plot was purchased for a burial ceremony, not an extended period of time, and that no provisions were maid for maintenance thereafter if you didn't actually lease the land for a period. You see, cemetery land is EXPENSIVE in the states due to demand, and it's created a system in the US where only the upper-middle class and above can really afford to be buried, or buried where they would want to be at least, again due to the demand for plots. Most people in the US have now been priced out and instead have to opt for the economic option of cremation. So, anyways, back to the original topic. Unless you've specifically purchased the rights to a plot for a specific period of time, which does happen most of the time; Or unless you've specifically purchased the land from the cemetery, and now have ownership of that plot indefinitely, which pretty much no cemetery in the US will do unless your paying in, or at least near, the 7 digits; Then at any point a cemetery can clean you out of the plot and resell it. And obviously, so long as it's legal, they have no regard for the morals of it. Something I should mention though is that normally they aren't taking bodies out that were placed there last week, or anything like that lol. Normally it's at least near a hundred years. But yeah; What happens when the cemeteries are full? Well in the US at least, they reuse and resell them to the highest bidder, so they're never really full, or full for long at least, because someone with the money is always willing to pay top dollar to be dead in style, rather than be dust in the wind.

Watch criminal minds

I work in healthcare in the United States in primary Care. That is a situation that our patients come across quite frequently. We had an elderly general man just last month decided that he would rather die of cancer than try to get treatment because it was too expensive. The insurance that he did have wasn't very good and he would have to continue to work in order to keep his insurance and he technically didn't qualify it for Medicare because he isn't bankrupt. So he decided it was in his family's best interest to just let it take him. There are days when I come home and breakdown crying because I cannot help people. For profit medicine is killing people.

@@redfox903 Medicare is not qualified for by income It is a simple age thing. Do you consider under 65 "elderly"? Over 65 qualifies for Medicare. Insurance coverage does not drop due to stopping working, there is COBRA coverage which would automatically kick in if you terminated employment. Its cost would be the entire amount of the insurance the employer may have been partially paying for as a part of their employment. And that would be way cheaper than having to pay for cancer treatment. BTW, I assume you make a wage at your work. Is that not "for profit"? Also, most hospitals are "non-profits" though there are exceptions. Believe it or not, costs are an issue for all systems, including things like the NHS in England and the more private, but government mandated system in Germany, They all stress over costs and seek to limit "unnecessary" expenses, sometimes using things like rationing or treatment delays. There is no "free". If you want to help your patients, learn more about what is available to them. Honestly, most providers don't know much about that, only complain about what they don't understand. And I am not trying to be unsympathetic, I have many family members in heath care fields. I will admit things are hard to navigate here.

@@gregm3139 point number one patient is 60 therefore not old enough to qualify for Medicare. Patient currently has too much in assets which means that they do not qualify for Medicaid even with cancer. Patient does not qualify for Cobra because he is coming from a company with less than 20 employees which means that his company does not have to pay into Cobra. and even if he did qualify for Cobra the average payment a month for an individual is $630 US dollars. Patient made the mistake of not paying into short-term disability at their job because they didn't think that they needed it. In my area there is one hospital in a 45 minute drive and it is a for-profit hospital. Patient doesn't qualify for financial assistance at said hospital in order to get their cancer treatment because again they have too much an assets in land. So in order to protect the inheritance and retirement funds of his wife and children he decided it was better to just die. So before you come on here telling me I don't know enough about my job and I need to do my research maybe take a step back and and have some humility by understanding maybe you don't know everything about every situation.

@@Frytoons hell ya! As a kid I cut my finger from tip to palm and had to take an ambulance because the school messed up on inputting my parents cell numbers into their system and for a 15 minute ride it cost around 1k just for the ambulance.

Yup best friend broke his leg bone sticking out and all he refused to call an ambulance and so I did he got a bill for like $8k. That one hospital alone was enough to have him file bankruptcy and almost commit suicide. Almost an $200k bill.

@@rx2powersports 200k for a broken leg ?.

@@black_forest_ You arw jokeing ?.

@@rx2powersports I'm sorry, but you are most certainly fabricating the $200k bill. A cast, medication, and possibly overnight stay at the hospital for even a week would never come close to $200k. Stop lying.

@@xythiera7255 uncomplicatet broken upper arm (pretty much an tug to set and then a cast) 6000 bucks so 200k valid for an open fracture that needs some hardware to fix.

Worst part is if they are unconscious they'll administer stuff regardless and basically milk you for as much as possible. And some people will just rather die than leave their family with a bill like that.

But hey! It's america baby! So it's absolutely fine! (Joke)

Bruh The medical industry is just on that sigma male grind.

They didn't work hard enough better spending in the army than helping lazy people duh

People with broken limbs or having heart attacks literally drive themselves to the emergency room because they can’t afford the ambulance

Wtf

Yeah maybe in US after they use MRI scan they throw it to trash

@@wisnu1114 what

It’ll probably be broken at that price

@@wisnu1114 yeah, I fell on my tailbone in high school and they pulled out a disposal MRI machine, finished scanning, tossed it in the dumpster behind an Arby’s

It's cause all of the US is run the same way. We're nothing but factory farm animals to these people.

More accurate would be: EA: Purchase this medical gift box for the chance to win oxygen ...pay... EA: Congratulations you've won a free vasectomy

@@jwlademann That is fucking funny because it is so accurate.

EA??

@@heymikeyh9577 Eastern Asia maybe

its funny as shit

@@okidoki878 people don’t even realize that what Europe and Scandinavian counties are doing right now, is what the founding fathers of the United States wanted for America.

My reaction is usually a mixture of depression and a mouth-frothing rage. Remember to vote for progressives (if possible) instead of just voting democrat.

Marry someone from another country and escape lol.

Yeah I’m sure someone just makes random numbers up and try to make sure it’s expensive. So glad I live in the UK
