People do not say “oooh that’s a lot of money - is there a worse doctor who is cheaper?”, instead they say “100% yes I will remortgage my home and sell assets to pay for the cancer treatment my child needs.”
I can’t believe how many times I had to make this exact point to dipshits I worked with any time they uttered the term “free market”.
What am I going to do in an emergency in the back of an ambulance on the way to the ER? Hey, can you guys pull over for a sec? I need to check if the current ER doc is in network. Fuuuck ooooffff.
I then recount the time I needed a non-emergency procedure (MRI for my back) which affords me plenty of time to shop around. I proceeded to call around to try to get prices (LOL) and then I got my insurance and MRI place on the phone all at once and I STILL couldn’t get a solid number for how much it would cost me. Who the fuck else needs to be on the call to get a number???
They literally don’t even have a product.
Then don’t buy it.
