Just don't pay the bill! Once the hospital sells it to a collection agency, you're off the hook! You're under no obligation to pay a collection agency and after a set number of years, depending on the state, if they don't collect and can't make contact with you, the debt goes away!
Just a reminder how F up our health system is. If you end up getting treatment form a hospital that is out of network or even if you are in an in-network hospital but the physician treating you is not in-network; you can end up in financial ruin.
YUP.
Obamacare is still the law of the land. You can thank the warmonger John McCain for that.

No, you can thank the Liar in Chief who promised time after time after time he would put a far better than the ACA plan in place soon after taking office and 19 moths later has utterly failed to meet his promise.
BTW, save your excuses, he made no mention of McCain's vote being required to put his alleged plan in place.

And as a retired teacher in a state where teachers are not unionized and mother of a teacher in a state where they are not unionized----
School districts have crappy benefits like health insurance for their employees---
Coverage is thin and rates are high...
