Time to die or go into debt?  Assuming you can get more credit than whatever you've already used up?  See, most people in that situation do the only thing they can.  They keep paying..and default on everything else.  Perhaps you can see how that doesn't work for anybody?  It's not good for the person paying for treatment, it's not good for their creditors, and ultimately it's not good for the care provider...either personally or in business terms when the well finally dries up.

You're only one medical emergency away from insolvency yourself....you realize?  That will hit you long before the government steps in to play captain save-a-ho who thought it would never be him.
Yup and then it all goes straight to hell .
