Free Healthcare ? In Amerikkka ?

Since when ?

Only when you're so poor (earn less than 15k/yr out 21k a year in some states) not having it functionally costs more money, but only so long as you follow all the bureaucratic rules to continually prove eligibility.

And don't forget, you still have to find healthcare providers that accept Medicaid, pay copays, etc.

In some states they don't even have that. I've been seeking disability for six years in America for a partially broken back, with ten years of documented ongoing treatment at this point from childhood and my parent's medical coverage (I can walk, but I'm stooped most of the time and get to live with chronic pain, yippee) and because I couldn't get by on nothing, and got a part time gig that didn't cross the threshold I still got my benefits denied. So like, in all technicality, though I see myself as an able-bodied young man and pursue an active lifestyle to make sure my weight doesn't cause my spine to degrade and leave me fully paralyzed, I'm not even who this guy's talking about, and I can't get benefits through the current system. Now I'm just uninsured and planning to immigrate for education (and healthcare).
