Why do men have to pay for maternity care?
Politicians have been micromanaging health insurance for years. Some group lobbies state legislators for their pet treatment or disease, and *presto* all insurance companies must cover them.
So, you pay for everyone else’s chiropractic, mental health, maternity, mammograms, autism treatments (many of which are quack therapies targeted at the desperate), and a whole host of other treatments and tests that you may not want or need. Nobody is allowed to just buy basic health coverage for themselves and their families.
Does anyone know if the law REQUIRES providers to accept patients? Otherwise I see a lot of “cash only” doctors.
