Did you know that people who pay cash are charged 200 to 300 percent more than people who use insurance?

As long as people are offered a choice to either pay or not pay than I have no problem with this. If people don’t want to pay the prices that the hospital charges then either go somewhere else or find a witch doctor. You can’t have everything. It is bad enough we have people who go to the doctor without payment or insurance...That is what MUST stop.

” If people don’t want to pay the prices that the hospital charges then either go somewhere else or find a witch doctor.”

Brilliant, naps!

How stupid of me. I didn’t realize you could walk into a hospital with a broken rib and ask for the hospital’s price list to see what they charge for fixing a broken rib. And if you don’t like the price, you can drive to a hospital down the street and see what that hospital charges for a broken rib. That way you drive, compare and shop broken rib care at hospitals throughout the city.

You’re a genius. I never thought of price comparison shopping for a broken rib.

If those prices are unsatisfactory, you can go find a witch doctor to sprinkle toad hair and fix you up.

Brilliant! naps.

Sometimes, I wonder why I hang around here and listen to morons.
