jesus fucking christ learning anything about american healthcare makes me so sad and angry. what a fundamental failure to provide a vital service to a populace.
#i was reading some webcomic where a plot point is about his health insurance doesn’t get transferred when he moved or smth
#so he has to pay out of pocket for insulin and prozac
#and like off-brand prozac. fluoxetine
#or do you have to pay out of pocket even if you do have insurance? idk
#anyway he couldn’t afford both so he had to skip the prozac
#which is a fucking awful choice to have to make
#and like goddamn. that’s a choice you have to make? on the monthly? you have to choose between affording rent and food or not dying?
#canadian healthcare is not a utopia either. it’s very very significantly better but it still sucks and will fuck you over
#ontario in particular tbh
#ohip covers what’s ‘medically necessary’ but medical necessity is something they can fudge
#fuck you if you want dental or optometry. go through hell if you want therapy
#fuck you if you want certain medications. fuck you if they’re rare or new or ontario just hates what’s wrong with you
#fuck you if you’re older than 24. fuck you if you don’t have private insurance from a fancy job
#like point being ontario health insurance also makes me angry. it is purposefully difficult to navigate
#and large portions of it still wanna wring you dry for committing the sin of not wanting to be in pain
#but it must be fucking awful having to worry about not being able to afford not dying
#to be bleeding out on the pavement literally or metaphorically and not be able to afford the ambulance
#the state of healthcare is fucking horrifying and it makes me so so sad and angry
