You don’t have a family doctor, and you can’t get an admission bed. So you end up waiting and waiting in the ER for a physician who might not be able to help much, writes Dr. Brian Wall.
If it was their only goal than every corporation would raise prices as much as they could.
That’s what they do though. Basically all corporations raise prices as much as they can. That’s how they profit.
It’s clear you don’t know what beholden means.
Maybe it’s a regional difference in how it’s used. I really don’t fucking care. But I’m glad to see you managed to find a way to be condescending.
Its against the law for doctors to refuse treatment based on insurance.
That only really applies for emergencies. And youre forgetting my original claim, going on some unrelated tangent. Like i said, basically no medical examination or procedure ever happens unless a medical professional gets the go-ahead from a health insurance company. If the insurance company says no, then tough luck, no cancer screening for you. If the insurance company says no, then tough luck, no blood work for you, etc.
Corporations are just as bureaucratic. But it’s worse because a corporation’s only goal is profit, at the cost of your health.
Government is not bound by such a flaw.

Non-profit corps make up a minority of all corps.
Talk is cheap.
But they are beholden to them through insurance, one of the most bureaucratic parts of american life.

Sure they can have those, but the only real goal is profit. Those things would exist if they were not profitable.
Are you joking?

“The doctor does not have a working relationship with the patient’s healthcare insurance provider”.
I never said anything about doctors refusing treatment based on insurance. That’s a strawman, and not even one that works in your favor.
You sure love to point to exceptions when people are talking about the general trend.
