It's expensive because I can't move doctors, and I and my employer have to buy a stupid financial product to even see a doc. How much of that $400 goes towards the doc anyway? Towards payments on the MRI machine? Towards the office space? No more than $100 all in.
For one billable minute of every doc's time, we are paying 5 billable minutes for various "healthcare administrators" all over the country to move numbers and billing codes around in a labyrinthine spreadsheet. For what?
- alistairSH 3y agoI don't disagree with any of that. I'd much prefer some form of nationalized/socialized health system (and would not prefer a "cash only" system, because there will be people who can't afford that even at half the current rates).
