Americans First Hospital Bill In Germany!😟 🤣 🇩🇪 🇺🇸

How old is that video? Or rather: how old is the bill?

if u are stationary in ambulance sleeping over nights each night cost u 10 euro no matter what hospital. and ive got no extra cost just the stay. and i had OP , not an emergency

Some Americans come over just to stay in hospital in Germany. This is including flight much cheaper than the med. treatment in the US…

I have been in Ipswich General Hopital, Queensland, Australia, over 31 times, and several ambulance trips, once i hav a power saw accident with my right hand, and they had to get a police escort for a microsurgeon to re attach it all. the Bill. $0.. i was charged $17 once when they had to get in some special pill sthat the Hospital Pharmacy did not stock. out side of that. Zip.

Canadians be like, "What? A hospital bill? You mean for the parking, right ?"

Naja. Ich bekomme als Privatpatient schon öfters ziemlich hohe Rechnungen, die auch keineswegs zu 100% von der PKV und der Beamtenbeihilfe abgedeckt werden. Im Dezember bin ich auf über 200€ Arztkosten sitzen geblieben, im Januar wird's nicht besser sein, weil der Arzt wieder mal die Regelhöchstsätze angewendet hat, die zumindest die Beihilfe nicht anerkennen wird. Klar sind das keine Kosten wie in den USA, aber so paradiesisch, wie dargestellt, ist es halt auch nicht. Nicht für alle.

20 EURO …. absolute scam. way to much.

Und meistens bezahlt die Rechnung noch die Krankenversicherung..

That's why Bernie Sanders would have been the best president for the USA! (-> Medicare for all)

How terrible this devilish socialist system is! You only have to pay 10€ per day in the hospital and not million dollar per day! Poor guy that he no longer lives in the land of freedom! /S

it is not totally free in germany! i had fever and the lungs were whistling means pneumonia, but my health insurance card was lost, i had to sign a self payment declaration (selbstzahler erklärung) in the hospital so a few days later, i went to the health insurance office in my city with my id card and asked for a new one, despite a nasty cough. then i gave the original declaration of insurance to a hospital employee and "a stone fell from my heart" like the germans say after a big challenge is won.
do well and stay safe!

I don't believe an American would be presented with such a bill in the mail. As someone not covered under the German National Health Plan it would be much much higher and they would likely want payment at the time of service.

People don’t understand American Healthcare. I got a 90k bill my insurance paid 25k the rest was simple not paid and the hospital uses it as loss for tax reasons.

I was bitten in the hand by a possibly rabid cat and I went to the hospital for rabies treatment(I had already been to a med-center right after it happened. They cleaned, examined, and bandaged my hand which cost $200). I sat I the hallway of the emergency department, in the dark. I had to move my feet when gurneys, wheelchairs, or hospital equipment came by. The doctor had them turn on the light so she could see my swollen hand. She drew on it with a marker and told me to come back if the swelling went beyond the marks she drew(Doctor bill $188). They gave me the first set of 14 rabies injections in my arm, hand, and finger(VERY painful!!!). Anyone want guess what the total cost was for sitting in a dark hallway for a few hours in the emergency room and get the first rabies treatment?? $18,000. This is in the U.S. I had no insurance at the time, since I was just laid off from my job of 23 years(all excellent evaluations too). I live in a “Right to Work” state, which means an employer can fire you at any time for no reason at all. They simply wanted to hire someone else for the job at less pay.

Thanks to an average income tax of 37.4 percent per year as opposed to 24. 6 in America . Perspective.

Great!, even much more cheaper than in México. All the countries will be cheaper compared with the super highest cost in USA

Come and see medical bills in Switzerland… Then you'll want back in Germany

I was in a crash and had to go to the ER with ambulance and MRI.
That cost me 25 euro.
Then i had to spend three nights including surgery.
That was 10 euros per night.
I was more that i got one bill from the ER, one bill from ortopedic departement and one from the departement that had me for observation the first night.
The bills included breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as young nurses giving me a showe

Mir geht's mit den Briefen vom Finanzamt so…falle fast in Ohnmacht, zittern und schaudern..🫣😱😰🥵🥶
