this is true.I recently ... 4 months ago caught my hand in a molder and got 3 fingers good including bone. I went to the emergency care as it was close by and after filling out a ton of forms was asked if I had insurance. I was the asked if it was good insurance and told good ... you will be ok and get to keep your fingers ... my friend and I looked at each other SHOCKED !! WTF
I have all digits and most use because I pay for my insurance if I didn't they would be gone.
people without insurance get minimal care, they do not get the best of the best or even close to that....people poor enough on medicaid, would get the same care, and keep their fingers, but not the one without insurance...in most cases.
