Public health care is garbage. Private healthcare is even worse. No healthcare is slightly better.  For example: Going to a private clinic with no insurance to get an MRI, if you pay cash…$500. Beautiful office, headphones during the 45 min procedure, large sized machine, good looking nurse. HMO with subsidized insurance. Wait in a dark empty hallway for 1 hour with no idea when you will get seen. NO staff comes thru. Finally ask if they forgot about you, as you stand in a stupid paper gown. Shitty machine with about 4 inches of clearance on each side (I am 135 lbs, so that is like a machine from the 80’s). NO music or radio. They don’t give a copy of the slides, AND they charge TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS to the insurance company. Hmmm, tell me what’s wrong here… Perhaps single TIER and limits on what a place can charge is better than what we have, because medicare gives dick back in reimbursements to doctors so they keep upping the “fees” to get paid a partial amount of costs. They get like 14% of some procedures in some states.
