Comments on: Another Day, Another Meme http://norunnyeggs.com/2009/09/another-day-another-meme/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Following an illness at a time that I had poor medical insurance, I was left owing a 5-figure amount to my doctor. The clinic allowed me to pay off that amount over time and without interest. They were just happy to be paid and even forgave a part of the amount. At a time that Medicare shafts physicians a large part of their fees, doctors and hospitals are not going to sue a patient for payments that put him into bankruptcy if the patient makes a good faith effort to pay his bills. hb Shoebox,
