Terry Brown+FollowWhy Your Medical Bills Are OutrageousEver wondered why your medical bills are so confusing and sky-high, even with insurance? Turns out, it’s not your doctor’s fault. Dr. Jaime Seeman spills that the real issue is a total lack of transparency and a billing system so complex, even doctors are lost. Meanwhile, insurance and pharma giants are cashing in big, leaving patients and providers stuck with the mess. No wonder so many of us are drowning in medical debt! #Health #BodyHealth #HealthcareCosts22Share
Erik Watson+FollowI Stood in the Pharmacy for 10 Minutes… Still Walked Away Without InsulinI’m a diabetic immigrant mom. I work legally, pay taxes, don’t ask for extra help. Last week I went to pick up my insulin. The cashier told me: “Your insurance doesn’t cover this brand anymore.” The total popped up: $289. I had $240 in my account. I stood there for 10 minutes, frozen. A man next to me said, “If you can’t afford insulin, maybe go back to your country.” Do people think we want to struggle? Do they know some of us are literally risking our lives because of healthcare costs? #InsulinCrisis #HealthcareCosts #ImmigrantLife #AmericaToday20Share
Dana David+FollowParents vs. Surprise Medical BillsHoliday stress isn’t just about gifts—American parents are losing sleep over mystery medical bills, too. With 7 in 10 living paycheck to paycheck, many are skipping doctor visits just to make ends meet. The real kicker? Hospitals and insurers still aren’t giving clear prices upfront, leaving families in the dark until the bill arrives. Price transparency could be the game-changer families need to take control of their health and wallets. Would you shop around for care if you knew the cost? #Health #BodyHealth #HealthcareCosts00Share
