Surgery is cancelled until he can pay a $750 co-pay. Is this outrageous? (He's on Medicare and can't afford the supplemental insurance)
Oh dear ... that's so ... ugh! How long can the surgery wait?

that's outrageous.
Patty Poppy
says
the aneurysm is as large as a baseball he says..
Patty Poppy
says
I am just beside myself with anger over this.
That sounds life-threatening. Doesn't the hospital have a charity fund that can help?
Patty Poppy
says
We are looking into this right now
Otenth
says
that's downright immoral. I hope he finds a solution quickly.
Gracie
says
is he in the hospital? or was thus outpatient? maybe if he goes through the ER they have to take care of it and they will bill him.
Linus Lacombe
says
This is immoral. Greedy.
Patty Poppy
says
He's not in the hospital. they found this accidentally during some other procedures he was having done as an outpatient.
That is outrageous. I hope you find a solution.
Patty Poppy
says
just above where it splits off to the legs. Same place my other brother has one repaired last year.
Patty Poppy
says
and, yes, I'm going to have myself checked out, too! 
Gracie
says
My dad had a brain aneurysm.. they had to do emergency surgery.
Patty Poppy
says
My father died of a similar aneurysm at age 49.
Patty Poppy
says
He's lucky they could repair it, Gracie
Gracie
says
oh wow
I concur with the "amoral" comments. Have them recite the Hyppocrat oat while looking at him in the eyes!
Oh, good grief! 
The world has gone insane. Are they just going to let people die on their doorsteps?!?
*Hyppocratic oath!*

he gonna be able t'pay it, Poppy? 
Arggh. I'm going to resist all bitter political remarks and just offer my sympathies and hopes for the best outcome for you both. 
Patty Poppy
says
we're still working on getting at least a delayed payment on this from the hospital involved.
