My brother, who is a veteran. was released from the marines with a little cough. He mentioned it when he was released, they moved him through his examination, said it was othing.
1 month later he went into a 24 hour clininc where they diagnosed him with pnumonia, and said he had to be admitted to a hospital now. They called an ambulance, took him to the hospital which was ...
...across the street.
Because he went to a hospital, not a VA hospital, it wasn't covered by his veteran's benefits. He didn't have insurance.
His bill was like 30k, 3k was that damn ambulance! And he is still trying to get the VA to cover the bill. He gets calls from debt collectors, it's really really ugly.
