My insurance won't cover UTIs for males. Yes, I'm in the US. - Lemmy.world

She literally called me at the time of the appointment to tell me she can’t see me. She was so apologetic, but was like “I absolutely can treat you, but I’m not allowed by your insurance”. Fuck this country. Update: I went to urgent care. Before leaving home, I called to be sure they would accept my insurance (Aetna). They said yes… After arriving for my appointment, they told me they do not accept my insurance. I will simply leave without paying.

It is utterly baffling to me how the US has not figured out nationalized healthcare. Literally every other developped nation in the western hemisphere has at this point.

Its crazy that a politician could come out and say "my number one priority is to ensure that every American has access to healthcare, paid for by the state", and would instantly be villified by like half the country.

They had something starting to resemble to healthcare, Obama made the 1st step. Then the minority voted for Trump. Alas that minority was in the majority of the states. It's a retarded 2 party system, but that's what you get for not using metric. ;)
