السفارة الأميركية لـ «الأنباء»: واثقون من التوصل إلى حلّ مع الكويت بشأن رسوم الخدمات الصحية للكويتيين

Obviously the ones in charge of the medical or health section in the embassy of Kuwaiti in Washington are not up to the snuff and probably busy with the usual, since they failed to catch the financial debacle from the start. The U.S. has a very unique medical system. Most American have health insurance through their medicare (if they're over 65), Medicaid ( government health insurance program for the poor) or through their employers or if they're free lancers, such as actors and musicians who tend to get their health insurance through an association such as screen actors guild. When one of those visit a hospital, a physician or a pharmacy, he uses an insurance card, the provider sends the bill to the insurance company, where the insurance adjusts the charge and informs the patient of how much to pay. Say the charge is $200, the insurance, since it's an agreement with certain hospitals and doctors reduces the charge to may be $70 and tell the patient your co-pay is $20. Anyone who doesn't have insurance'll be charged $200 and that's what happened in the case of those Kuwaitis. Perhaps you say: Why doesn't the government of Kuwait just buy a policy for the sick Kuwaiti before he goes a U.S. hospital and save money! That won't work because they've some thing called "exclusion of preexisting conditions". Therefore. may be Kuwait should contract with an American health insurance company to buy health insurance for every one in Kuwait. That'll save a lot of money and make me richer since I am an investor in those American drug and health companies
