If people were spending their own money for doctor visits you can bet health care costs would go down. People don’t seem to have any interest in getting the most bang for the buck as long as it is insurance company bucks. If doctor visits were on a cash basis, doctors wouldn’t charge as much as they do, if for no other reason than, because they wouldn’t have to have three or more clerical workers on staff just to handle the insurance payments. And don’t forget this, doctors are in the business of curing diseases, so you can bet they will find a disease to cure when you go to see them. Catastrophic health care insurance is all most of us need. But, no matter what, your family’s health care should not be one of my family’s concerns.
