True, but they can keep you in the waiting room forever, or until you die (whichever comes first), while they're kept waiting themselves for an "approved-to-treat" confirmation from the death panel.
I think I found a better approach. I've applied for membership in a Christian Healthcare Co-op. If accepted my deductible will be $10,000 after which my costs will be posted to be shared by other members monthly payments. The cost is half of what my current premium with Blue Cross is. With the savings I've hired a Concierge Doctor who is outside the insurance networks and is not constrained in how he treats any illness I may have. My personal information will not be submitted to HHS or require approval from them for treatment.
