    If you want to help, I have a GoFundMe set up for my initial medical costs, will which undoubtedly be crippling.

      Keep in mind that the algorithm biases certain topics.

The diagnosis and treatment for cancer is better than ever. Just want to make you hope that its maybe not as bad as it seems (dont want to play it down) but it can be terrifiying seeing so many people getting this diagnosis. Wish you the best.

    So sorry to hear this... here are a few things I learned working as a financial analyst for a hospital system. Medical Bills in the US are negotiable. Pick apart the bill and communicate issues to the hospital, they will lower the price if there is an error (there is always an error). See if you qualify for charity care (every hospital has to offer this). See if you qualify for Medicaid. If your cancer is rare you may qualify for free treatment at the National Institute of Health. Do not let fear of debt get in the way of treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

    • @ericl4060
      @ericl4060 Před měsícem

      I echo the above comments, the top comment needs so many more likes. I manage insurance contracts at a federally qualified health center (FQHC). A federally designated health center whose purpose it is to not only deliver primary care to Medicaid, Medicare, and uninsured patients, but provide resources for essentially all aspects of life to those that need them. In this case they could help with determining Medicaid eligibility, navigating insurance, helping with sliding fee scale eligibility which can provide little to no cost care, an affordable primary care doc, a care management team who might be able to assist with the chronic care management of this, and really anything else. An FQHC that has an outreach and enrollment team or care management team could connect you to resources at the health center or beyond. There also exist safety net hospitals who could provide hospital care that function similarly in terms of who they’re made to deliver care to, but of course the best help would be what the commenter above is saying. The quality of care provided by FQHCs and Safety Net Hospitals can wildly vary, some being as good as a normal health center or hospital, others being abysmal. But hopefully this information, in conjunction with the other comments, can at least provide an option that will help you better navigate the criminally confusing US healthcare system and get the care you need. There are so many resources out there for folks to utilize, the US just does a horrible job at telling people they exist. I sincerely wish you all the best.

      @@KmusikOne Apparently, YOU don't know anything about our healthcare system, either! The fact that the US spends more than any other country on its citizens' healthcare is NOT the flex/brag that you think it is.
      Why? Because we're STILL unhealthier than the Canadians despite all of that spending and their wait times! Did it ever occur to you that we spend so much precisely BECAUSE our citizens are so unhealthy?
      Our citizens are so unhealthy because SO many people cannot afford preventative care and medications, so small problems become BIG problems that require BIG spending. Slightly elevated blood pressure that goes untreated turns into severe hypertension, which causes kidney failure and strokes, which forces people to show up in the ER one day needing critical care that MUST be provided; if they have no insurance, or are unemployed, it just might be YOU paying for that critical care. And when hospitals aren't fully reimbursed by the government (which they often aren't), that gets passed on to YOU in the form of raised costs for hospital services. THAT'S where America's spending goes.
      Lastly, we don't wait months to see a doctor in the US because SO many our nearly 400 million fellow citizens simply can't see a doctor, which frees up access for those of us who can. Look at this guy, who can't schedule an appointment with a doctor because he has no insurance. THAT'S why we can get sooner appointments. That's not something to be proud of.
      You also say Canadians "pre-pay in taxes" as if YOU aren't *after-paying* for people's astronomical critical care costs. In America, you're going to pay your OWN enormous bills, as well as the bills of many other people. In Canada, you "pre-pay" a reasonable, predictable amount in taxes, in exchange for no out-of-pocket costs for services that you WILL one day use yourself. If America's system made us healthier, you would have a point, but our health outcomes are inferior to Canada's despite America theoretically having the best healthcare in the world.

      I got appendicitis in Romania, and even though I don't live there (I am from there), I got surgery and was in the hospital for 2.5 days for $1000. In America it would have been $30,000+ out of pocket, and still thousands even with insurance. American greed is the reason. Pure capitalism is the reason. Republican policies (or non-policies) are the reason.

      If it has spread to the brain, then it is likely he has stage 4 lung cancer. It is so hard to overcome. For anyone curious, here are stats as of 2023. The 5-year survival rate for those under 50 is about 14%. This means that only 1 in every 7 lives 5 years. Also, keep in mind that number is the average for young men and women. So it is actually inflated by the women, as men have far poorer outcomes comparatively. So, the chance of survival is lower.
      Edit: morally grandstanding because you're angry about the stats isn't kindness it is just keeping your head in the sand. Which helps no one.

    The insurance situation in this country is disgraceful. It’s hard enough to find out you have a serious disease without worrying about whether you will be able to pay for treatment. I retired in 2019 and went on Medicare. I was incredibly lucky that I chose original Medicare and Supplement G because before the next enrollment period I found out I had cancer. Now I will no longer be able to change my insurance but at least I already had selected the best possible for my current situation. Medicare is the kind of insurance everyone should have. In four years of cancer treatments I haven’t paid anything out of pocket. It is just unacceptable for someone to not be able to receive the treatment they so desperately need unless they have money. I hope you can resolve your insurance issues and start treatment soon and also that you will have a complete recovery.

And you could set your radiation treatment could be set up for like Friday after work and recoup over the weekend. I am a cancer warrior going on 4 years. And mine had metastasized to the chest, lungs, lymph nodes and then the brain. Mine in the tumor in the brain was in the left front. With perfect edges so they did surgery and radiation 3 treatments.

      Once his insurance starts in April, it will cost him very little, out of pocket. Usually it is a maximum amount per year and above that everything is free. I have first hand experience. My annual maximum out of pocket cost for all my healthcare, surgeries, and intensive care hospital stays with an average policy from the government marketplace was affordable. Employer insurance is usually even better. So he need not worry or rely on gofundme for insurance related costs.
