    Long-term, I honestly don’t know whether this is the cheaper option. DUIs make insurance pricy.

      In America it’s not surprising to drive while stabbed!

      Can we start doing the Russia jokes but American.

      Hey I’ll have you know that in Australia an ambulance can cost >$1000 without insurance!

      The problem is so serious that they run seminars in schools telling students to not hesitate calling for ambulances, because human lives are worth more than $1000.

      Fair enough. I’m pretty sure it costs something where I live, but everything else would be free.

    You’re also not legally required to pay medical bills in the states.

      I’m not from there, but I guess you’d have to give fake information?

      source

      • Psythik@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        Nope you have to give your real info. But the worst they can do is send debt collectors after you, which you can easily ignore.

  You can just ignore hospital bills, and they can’t refuse treatment if you don’t pay.

  So don’t worry about it; throw the bills in the trash, block the debt collectors’ numbers, and carry on with your life. I have been doing this for over 30 years now.
