Quote by Bernie Sanders
Look, if you have somebody who doesn't have health insurance, who doesn't have a doctor or dentist, and in order to deal with their cold or flu or dental problem, they go to an emergency room - in general, that visit will cost ten times more than walking into a community health center.
Summary
This quote highlights the financial burden faced by those lacking health insurance. It emphasizes that individuals without access to regular healthcare often turn to emergency rooms for minor issues such as colds or dental problems, leading to significantly higher costs. By contrast, if these individuals had the option to visit a community health center, the expenses would be considerably lower. The quote underscores the importance of affordable healthcare options and suggests that investing in preventative care can help save healthcare costs in the long run.
