So the Nurse at The Coffee Shop....
Last edited Sun Apr 7, 2013, 06:07 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)
...said to an employee the hospital she works at passed an E-memo waring employees that they will no longer be getting their healthcare at no charge stating Jan 1 2014. She said she will now have to pay about $100 a month for her and her family of 3.
She was complaining that she felt it unfair that she was now going to have to start paying for those who wont work or wont pay.
So I addressed her grievance with in a short fashion.... I said currently when someone comes in to the hospital emergency room and then declares they are insolvent let say because of a job loss who pays the bill then?
She said it is written off as a loss, I said how can a hospital write these off as losses without going out of business,by overcharging for current services and hospital medication right? She said likely. I said then how much do you think think these write offs add to the cost of procedures and ultimately health insurance cost?.... Her reply was I DONT KNOW.
I encouraged her to do some research to see how much she would have to pay if the hospital did as many employers do and split the premium cost with the employee and the fact she has been getting it for free could simply be revoked because of other cost like to pay the executive staff.
She said she just thinks it is unfair that she has to pay something just to level the field. I said do your research and you will see you are likely already paying to level the field and getting less for it. And reminded he that Bush handed PHARM companys many billions a year so Grandma could get her meds at a price closer to the real cost they are and I said you are paying for that everyday you work in income taxes...
I closed by saying your employer is likely trying to impose a political point of view on you and they hope you don't notice.
Also... She kept calling healthcare a PRIVILEGE..I said healthcare shouldn't be a privilege or a benefit...it should be a RIGHT

6. The RN nurses here make 50-70k a year
1200 a year isn't that bad a deal since they make so much annually.
They are damn near 1 percenters. :rotf:

11. So it's okay if she and her family get free health care but not okay if someone
else who needs it gets it? Actually, $100 a month is a bargain. I have to pay $300 a month for health care and I have Medicare besides.
If this story is even remotely true, there is a difference between getting something for free and getting something at no cost provided by an employer. You have to actually do something to get it from an employer.

Just remember DUmbass,anyone making over minimum wage at the hive is hated.

Some states bailout hospitals for uninsured emergency medical coverage. NOTHING is free. The day the misfits realize that is the day their pathetic lives turn around.

A majority of his postings are bouncies. The rest are about his quest to get laid.

DUmmy rsmithnumbers is a permanently unemployed deadbeat in his late-fifties, early-sixties.
He has a permanently unemployed wife (thanks to his work on her resume) of about the same age.
I don't remember any posts where he was in search of female companionship - maybe you're combining him with the perpetually aroused stevenumbers.
They're the numbers brothers, two hilarious DUmmies, although stevenumbers has drastically cut his posting since the heyday of his prominence.

That doesn't even take into account their cut of the $50,000.00 they get every time they amputate somebody's foot.

Yes. You are correct.
At times, it gets confusing.
