go broke as you mention, and often go without care.

Sometimes being dumped from a hospital in the middle of the night drugged at some random location.

Often times a small problem gets put off and becomes a much larger problem.

It becomes a burden on family and friends, sometimes leads to amputations and other surgeries such that otherwise could of been avoided with better care.

This a huge problem for a lot of people, especially if you add in the dental care that is needed and not obtained around the country.
