    Well they make, what, 80 Billion a year? So 80B/190M = $421 each? Plus we’d fuck them over? Hey, we got nothing better to do but get sick and die.

      Fuck $421. Should be free healthcare, no copay no deductible no denials, for those affected. Really teach those bastards.

        you need basic copays, otherwise patients have incentive to over use the service.

        something like 20 bucks, would work. either way, if you need to see a professional, you should be able to see one. if he or she says, you need treatment, you get the treatment.

        how did society permit a bunch of parasites unrelated to medical profession second guessing quacks? THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO CAN SECOND GUESS A DOCTOR IS ANOTHER FUCKING DOCTOR

        That’s why it is a learnt profession… do we have bean counters and MBAs second guessing every technical decision a lawyers or engineer makes? wtf

          “overuse” shut up

          People have jobs to work and social lives to live.

          You are basically trading screwing poor and homeless people for mildly inconveniencing the one lonely old man in town.

          Any direct cost to individuals worsens the health outcomes of people in poverty, and the disabled, and the elderly.

            by not using common sense.

            currently all of that is happening at emergency room departments which is a reason among million others as to why emergency care is priced idiotically.

            certain people will go over wildest shit that anyone with 3 brain cells could figured out that it does not require a professional.

              So to prove your point about it needing to cost something, it requires us to look at the fact that it costs more and people are still doing it?

                People who are doing are generally social security, medicaid, or judgement proof. normal people can’t do this as this would ruin them financially.
