>>..., in the pre-1965 era, if you had to go to the hospital, the hospital may not have turned you down -- but if you were in the sizable percentage of Americans who had to pay all or much of the costs out of pocket, you’d be paying for your misfortune for years to come.

Total bullshit.

Cost to have a baby, 4 days in hospital, nursery, lab, medines, and even TV. $165.

Any fool who tells you cost shifting isn't a major factor in price escalation needs his head examined.

And you sure as hell didn't pay for "years to come."
