"isn't just bad for the poor. It's bad for everyone"
Thank you for saying that. I am amazed at how so many people don't see and understand this. It is not just about Cost which is insane alright. It is about the BS we have to go through after a visit to a doctor or hospital. I am scared about the type of bills and claim fights I have to do if I visit a doc. Not because I cannot afford it necessarily. But because I have to spend may be like 5 hours calling doctor's offices, insurance admins, billing departments and what not.
- beat 7y agoI went through a billing/process dispute with a provider last year after a change in their process led to a 30x increase in out-of-pocket costs for necessary treatment. It ended with them flatly lying to me that the changes were for my "safety". When I first dealt with all the new process, I asked my doctor why they were doing it, and he said "I think they just want to charge more money".
