I was in the hospital early this year for a kidney infection. What did I have to pay for? The ambulance ride. and I only had to pay 20% of that. I'm lucky that my school offers insurance that is included with our semester fees and that it is available to anyone who doesn't opt out. So basically, if you're at my college, you have health insurance for a low fee and can get dental 80-100%, perscription drugs 85% and ambulance 80% off. There are more but those are the ones that I remember.
It really is too bad that there are so many people who don't see how are system works, choosing to instead believe what they think they know.
