Increasing Health Care Costs Cause Americans to Delay Treatment

Twenty-five percent (25%) of Americans say they delay treatment of a serious medical condition due to health care costs, according to a recent Gallup poll.

Another 8% said they or a family member put off treatment for a less serious condition, bringing the total percentage of American households delaying health care to 33%, tying the previous 2014 record high number.

Lower income households saw a larger increase in reported delayed medical treatment than middle and upper income households.

There may be a partisan component to the reports of delayed health care, since more (self-identified) Democrats report delaying important treatment and the existence of pre-existing conditions.

READ: Attorney General Barr statement on Horowitz surveillance report

Attorney General William Barr had harsh words after Inspector General Michael Horowitz issued his report on alleged government surveillance abuse.

In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source.
