Much different situation than in the US. They didn’t go bankrupt. The private hospital just wanted to send them the the maternity room down the road. Was it a mistake by the hospital? Yes. But it wasn’t because of insurance and the mother didn’t got bankrupt.

Yes of course, it was just a recent example to show that other countries aren’t perfect. I agree with the general message of the post, the us have a very fucked up system that is way worse than in Europe.
You can look at my other comment for more detail about why I felt the need to react.

I get it, but it’s still comparing apples to oranges. This situation could have happened in any country and also in the US with or without universal healthcare.
