And that is why 2/3 of bankruptcies in the US are due to medical debt. My car accident just hit $10K in bills, and if it was not for the car insurance paying that I'd be a world of hurt... and I don't live paycheck to paycheck. I think a lot of these types of conversations deal with that just about nobody understands how much $10,000 is exactly. 10K is 6 months minimum wage. It's a LOT of money to have in hand all at once.
