In Massachusetts, thanks to Romneycare, we've had a 3 year head start and it's not pretty. If you haven't already signed up for a PPO plan or don't already have a Doctor than tuff noogies. Very few practices are taking on new clients.
So it's off the emergency room for everything where the co-pay is 50 to 150 per visit. The saving grace is that you are usually at the ER long enough to pick a second language or two.
the second language wouldn't be Spanish would it ??? also i bet your wait will be extensive . it takes a long time to stitch knife wounds and surgery for for gunshot
