Well they usually want the cash upfront here Bill for private treatment. On the other hand if one can wait it is free. If one is in a critical condition that usually dwelt with promptly.

But - the hospital needs money to be able to give services. I wonder how many would abuse the compassion? It's easy for me to say because I live here maybe - we all pay through our taxes and hospital care is 'free' when we need it. Love all the happy people in Philipp Philipps 'Gone,Gone,Gone' song, BC-A. First time I've ever had the pleasure of seeing it, thank you!

Yes, I do feel that they should show more compassion in settling those hospital bills.

Yes, they should. They have special programs for those who are unable to pay or are on limited income.

They should but much depends on the head and heart of the one at the desk.
