    A pregnant women was refused entrance to a private hospital she was forced to give birth on the parking lot in front of the entrance.

    Much different situation than in the US. They didn’t go bankrupt. The private hospital just wanted to send them the the maternity room down the road. Was it a mistake by the hospital? Yes. But it wasn’t because of insurance and the mother didn’t got bankrupt.

      Yes of course, it was just a recent example to show that other countries aren’t perfect. I agree with the general message of the post, the us have a very fucked up system that is way worse than in Europe.

      You can look at my other comment for more detail about why I felt the need to react.
