If you have no insurance, sure. If you have even crappy insurance and max out both your in network and out of network out of pocket maximums, you are talking tens of thousands, not hundreds.

This is only true if the insurance decides if your treatment or received health care is covered. If you happen to need something that the insurance just outright will not cover, then you foot the bill.

  Fair point. Generally, emergency minimally life saving care is covered by default. That’s the point of getting insurance. I’m sure there’s many examples of that failing to hold true, though.
