This question on Quora brought forth an avalanche of replies, all negative.
[dropcap]A [/dropcap]few months ago, a beautiful young mother Marlen Ochoa was brutally killed. She was strangled and her unborn baby was cut from her womb by Clarissa Figueroa and her daughter, while her boyfriend Pete Bobak covered their tracks. The baby was taken to a local hospital in serious condition. Clarissa Figueroa was seen by the ER while there.
After the brutal crime was exposed, Marlen Ochoa’s husband, Yavani Lopez, was devastated. He lost his wife and was now losing his baby boy. The grieving father stayed by his baby boy’s side holding on to hope that he boy would live, despite him having severe a disability if he did. The heartache the young father had was unfathomable. Anyone who followed this story felt deep sympathy for the grieving father.
His beautiful baby boy eventually died, and the grieving husband and father got this…..
A $300,000 dollar medical bill with the killer's name written on the bill.
So not only is the father stuck with the medical bills stemming from this murderous woman and her family, but he also has to see her name show up as if he were her baby boy.
There was a discussion about what happened with the hospital regarding the case; on multiple occasions and they still failed to connect the dots and billed the family in the killer's name.
Baby's family mad about hospital bills in cut-from-womb case
First, the medical bill is over $300,000 given to a victim of a crime. Second, it is written in the name of the killers despite it being a highly publicized case. The hospital failed to make the connection, and were extremely insensitive.
US healthcare is appalling, insensitive; they are strictly for profit. No respect given to the grieving father Yavani Lopez or his family.

That is so untrue, I watched a score of your hospital serials, one of them including George Clooney of the White Helmets fame, and they are so eager to assist helpless people that it is heartbreaking!
The US need only look a few miles North to see a fully functional healthcare system in Canada, operating at one tenth the cost of their own for profit system. Ask any Canadian if their system works and you will get a positive response. No, it isn’t perfect by a long shot, but it is the next best thing. Cost? Not the overblown costs that universal healthcare critics use to tar Elizabeth Warren’s healthcare plan with. Not anywhere close.
