Well, it happened, I got thrown into the hospital without ins.

5. Several years ago when I was less established financially, I took over paying off a large hospital

bill for my father that had passed away. My mom couldn't pay the bill at the time. And I could not pay it in big chunks. I worked out a repayment plan with the hospital that I could afford, they even worked with me with the goal that I could afford what was agreed to. Try working out a payment plan with the hospital, one that you can pay without strain on your finances. My repayment was interest free, the hospital knew that the alternative was to collect nothing.

One day soon, thinks to President Obama and the people that supported him at the polls, we will have a system where people won't be saddled with large hospital bills.
