Relief for thousands of families burdened by crushing medical debt

[@w1ngy_music]

I wonder why the sudden change of heart 🤔

[@TheHighIQ]

Actually, the story says the black man's debt was forgiven I'm September and the couples debt was forgiven "not longer after" his. This story is an attempt to cash in on recent events.

[@ArchThaBoss]

Putting a lien on someone’s home because they can’t afford to pay a medical from treatment they needed to stay alive is such a low life move

[@peartfaldo]

kind of like giving illegals free care when millions had their plans taken away by obamacare

[@randallmichael2954]

They only did it because NC legislature passed a law that hospitals couldn't place a lien on personnel property to cpllect unpaid debt. Goverment provides tax payer funds hospitals can tap into for payment. So actually hospitals hve been gettng paid twice when a forced sell of ones property was enforced.

There are MILLIONS of us who are suffering because we can't get the care we need. Stop showing pathetic examples of insurance companies doing less than the bare minimum. It's far too little, and far too late!

[@2musicSoundtrackfandom579]

Then let's make a change. And no matter what the rich or the powerful may thr3@ten or do. Let's make a change so that the American people can obtain needs and proper insurance that can help with their care. We're tired of being scammed and get robbed from and lie to So let's go to our house of representatives to change that That laws will be put into place that will help the american people

SOCIALIZE HEALTHCARE NOW!! Bernie Sanders!!

[@debbie5728]

Why? So, the dire surgery (you’ll never get sitting on govt waiting lists)would have been fully covered?

[@raiitaly]

@debbie5728 When it comes to top-ranking health systems and the healthiest countries, the U.S. doesn’t make the list. Countries with socialized medicine consistently outperform us. Don’t fall for the American corporate narrative-systems that prioritize public health work better.

@@debbie5728 they can't do surgery on your tiny brain, it's too small.

[@raiitaly]

@@debbie5728 We are ranked 45th in healthcare. You know who isn't? Countries with universal healthcare. Facts don't care about your feelings. Canadians and Norwegians take pride in their healthcare systems. In fact, Norwegians love paying taxes to support it.

[@brandonhultgren5776]

Don’t just forgive the debt without fixing the issue that caused it or else the debt will just come right back.

[@williampadgett2259]

I wonder what brought this on?😂

[@jackshaftoe1715]

Who can even afford to go get looked at, let alone DENTAL.

And people said violence doesn’t affect change and never has , looks like it does after all

[@omghowcuteify]

Oh god, that's horrible.

[@rankat1841]

Medical debt is the number 1 cause of homelessness in the US. If they come for your house because of the medical debt you owe, immediately start filing for bankruptcy. Put all that medical debt in the filing.

Are we still gonna purge

[@robertjamesonmusic]

This country BLOWS!

[@AlexZ-lc6nl]

Luigi was right…..🤷🏻‍♂️

[@lisamareeaccary5132]

OMG … I say this because in Australia this situation doesn’t exist If you need heart surgery the government pays for it I’m so sorry for our fellow Americans being denied the right to healthcare but instead have rights to carry guns It’s insanity

[@AEWxObituary]

Booooo, we need to protect our Billionaires!

[@dwoolf7019]

I'm happy for these people but I'm waiting for the other proverbial "shoe to drop"

The statement of We come from families that paid their bills is telling-----I imagine most people in this situation and others situation like this would pay their bills but like these people life had been stacked against them. Glad these people have been helped theirs millions more that need it.

[@headmistressminerva]

Wow... can't imagine why

[@jcarle1001]

Sad you need national news coverage to get help

[@jermelpurse3018]

This story speaks to the problem we have in America insurance is something too many Americans do not have. If you don’t have healthcare insurance, you can be settled with debt that you would never be able to pay back no matter how many years you worked. We literally need a system where nobody who is a US citizen can go without health insurance. That’s the type of system we need because this man who worked all those years until he retired, he didn’t have one thing he needed. He didn’t have health insurance. He was literally waiting. That shouldn’t be a possibility. You can argue. We should have a law that he must purchase health insurance. You can argue that we should give him some type of health insurance and text him for it whatever he should’ve had health insurance.

[@cynjhern]

If we had elected Bernie Sanders for president in 2016, none of this would be happening.

[@lisamareeaccary5132]

Wow this isn’t about heart felt stories It’s a HEALTH INSURANCE ADVERTISEMENT

[@lf3361]

BS, it's showing that the Media pressure can Help ALOT

[@nneo100]

Why did they forgive the debt?

[@OutpostMJ]

Private corporate health insurance upper level management ++ remember: Luigi Mangione.

[@c.d.6004]

He chose not to buy insurance and then he had a heart attack and surgery. Now over $90,000 in bills have been wiped away. Nice for him but not for everyone who pays every month for insurance. Guess it’s better not to buy insurance.

[@jermelpurse3018]

That’s the catch most people understand where he was coming from actually 64 approaching 65 going to be eligible for Medicare in just a few months I can wait and go see a doctor then. For most people nothing’s going to happen in those six months you’ll be OK but if you’re one of the few and something happens, you fall and break a hip you suddenly need cancer treatment You could end up in Medical freefall. We need a system where by someway people can’t not have health insurance. Some are going to argue that we shouldn’t tell people you have to have health insurance. Well if we don’t this happens and someone has to eat that cost. That hundred thousand dollars That was forgiven for his debt somebody’s gotta pay that bill. In case you are wondering that will be given back to the insurance company as a tax write off and guess who pays the bill you do. That’s why we want everyone to have health insurance. That way we don’t have to have debt being forgiven, and instead the insurance company can cover the surgery.

[@debbie5728]

Obamacare... funny how he and Pelosi gets a pass from the media.

[@peartfaldo]

obamacare ruined health insurance. millions had their plans taken away and now pay double. its made the cost of everything medical go way up.

[@winstonoboogie2424]

Healthcare is Russian roulette.
