I can attest to being in Canada on a fishing trip and getting abulace to emergency room in Kingston, ON. They want a credit card on file before they do anything.

@fannybaystar: Let me tell you what happened to us in Arizona 2 years ago. Have had insurance for 17 years with the same company - we had set our own deductible at $5,000 (this is important!!!!) We declared everything every year, including a stent he had 20 years ago AND NOT ONE CLAIM in all that time. Then my husband had a kidney stone. 4 hrs in emergency, one CT- scan and 12 tablets of Flomax and sent home to tough out its passing. Cost was $17,000 USD. Fast forward, the insurance company denied our claim because the stent was now referred to as CAD (coronary arterial disease)......Fast, fast forward after almost 1 year of fighting we decided to just pay the bill. We called Banner hospital and asked for them to re-issue the bill to us as private uninsured patient........READY??? The total bill, including the ER doctor+ the Radiologist's bills ...... drumroll please......$4,758 (our deductible was $5K) This insurance company collected 17 years worth of payments with absolutely no intention of ever paying. Now we travel self-insured. If we can fly home we'll do so. If we can't we now know what a huge graft the hospitals scam insurance companies vs uninsured patients.

According to the Mayo Clinic prostate surgery can be done on an outpatient basis or an overnight stay.

If he has little or no money there are programs that would pay for him.

Glad to have my private insurance here is the US which would ALSO cover costs if I needed care outside of the US like in Canada.

Hospitals will always negotiate. I have a large out of pocket with my insurance. I offer half and they will write off the rest.

Fwiw, you never have to pay the total you’re billed for. It can all be negotiated down

its amazing how our fellow Canadians think in america everyone wanders around without insurance. I use to get taxed and the wife was taxed and a portion went to Healthcare in Canada ( ohip ) . now we pay way less taxes ,have a family insurance plan and have more money in pocket at the end of the year. plus when you do go for care in america the Healthcare worker treats you better and takes more care of you as you can sue them directly if they dont do something properly.
