I read something about the US is difficult to be tested in - if you want a test it'll cost a thousand (or whatever) dollars, then if it's positive you get quarantined at a cost of thousands of dollars per night.
I don't know how much of that is true - do they have a public health care that would cover the cost and testing?
That is basically how their healthcare works out there. No insurance, no care. You'll get to a hospital and they start asking questions about your insurance, which ringfences the level of care you can get. Every nurse, doctor or consultant you speak to has their own charge for that bit of time which is added to the bill, then porterage charges, consumables etc etc. So yeah, if your circumstances are that you don't have insurance to cover it and you won't be able to pay for it yourself, you can't go to hospital or you'll get a bill that will land you in court and then prison when you can't pay it.
