Hospitals can be said to be a very expensive place. Once you get sick or have any problems, the longer you are in the hospital, the more money you spend. Especially for some serious illnesses, it may cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to undergo an operation, which can be said to be very expensive.
However, in my country, in this case, ordinary families can also support it, and medical insurance can reimburse part of the amount. So in general, although going to the hospital will make economic expenditure very large, it will not be subject to bankruptcy.
But if you are in the United States, you may lose all your money after seeing a disease and it is very likely that you will show negative assets. Although this matter sounds a bit exaggerated, it is something that will really happen in the United States.
The difference between our socialism is that the United States adopts capitalism , so in this case, their capitalist economy occupies a very important part, but such a system will also make the gap between the rich and the poor in the United States very large.
is also because of this, the rich have too much power. However, the various situations encountered by the poor can really not be more miserable, and this phenomenon is obviously reflected in medical insurance.
There is also a capitalist operation model in the medical industry in the United States. When you purchase medical insurance, the insurance company can reimburse 85% of the price you spend in the hospital for medical treatment.
Although there are many reimbursements here, these situations make the medical prices given when treating a hospital often very high, and even make the prices of many matters appear to be multiplied. Therefore, the price spent on medical treatment in the United States is simply sky-high, which is enough to make a person reach the level of bankruptcy.
Then, when it comes to this, some people must think: since this is the case, it is enough to buy insurance. You can afford most of the medical expenses by purchasing insurance, so you will bear even less. However, in fact, the issue of purchasing insurance in medical care is still a very capitalized control in the United States.
has universal medical insurance in our country, so under this premise, the cost we spend on medical insurance is not high, and there is no problem of class division. But in the United States, if you want medical insurance, the insurance you purchase is operated by private companies.
However, these insurance funds provided by private enterprises divide the medical part into different parts, and even ambulances will become a separate insurance project.
So if you want to buy all the insurance related to medical content, the cost is too large because there are too many projects and the cost is very large, which is something that many middle-class people cannot afford. If you choose to buy it, you cannot predict that those insurances will meet, which makes it an extremely complicated matter and has too much uncertainty.
To put it bluntly, medical insurance in the United States is equivalent to rich people using a lot of money to ensure that they can accept such insurance services. For the poor, whether they purchase insurance or directly pay medical expenses will be a huge expense.
So under such circumstances, some people have the choice not to buy insurance directly, but such choices will not have much impact if they are not sick. However, once some major diseases occur and go to the hospital for treatment, bankruptcy will occur due to no insurance.
So from this point of view, not everyone can afford to get sick in the United States. This is also the adverse impact that occurs under a capitalist system like them.
In this huge system, it has indeed built an upward trend in the United States in economic development. The United States' economic level is definitely a very developed country in the world. In fact, their medical level is indeed very good in terms of greater investment in capital.
But these are just a manifestation they create in the form of capital operation and accumulation of large amounts of exploitation. This seems to be able to gain a foothold under very good development, but it still implies many problems in the country.
And in this case, although the medical level in the United States is very good and has super high benefits, this is only something that some rich people can enjoy, and it is still a very big problem for most people. Therefore, if such services cannot be balanced, it can easily cause some dissatisfaction among the domestic people and lead to inconsistency in the overall economic development. Although in 2008, the United States also implemented certain medical insurance policies.
But from the situation later, the adjustment at that time did not achieve a good effect. Until now, medical care in the United States is still a very prominent thing in terms of both benefits and disadvantages. This incident also reflects the various terrible hidden dangers reflected by medical care under the influence of capital.
