salemcooger might as well be living life in solitary.creepycoug said:I have no idea what the answer is here, but I do know this: it's funny as fuck that the average American is so fucking stupid that they can't quite figure out how to support the policy that they'll benefit from, and oppose the policy that will fuck them.
Our fellow countrymen are pretty fucking helpless at the end of the day.
So much for liberty and all that. When you're really fucking stupid, you can't be free.
Now, back to the show ...
Don't fucking talk to my fellow alumnus like that you fucking donkey!!! Kewg bros are bros forever and always; and we stick together like puke on a sorority girl's hair after the frat party. -

You're not wrong. There is a huge information disparity which drives much of the market inefficiency. Has anyone ever asked prices before they go to the doctor?

If you're actually willing to take 15-25% then charging 4-6x in the first place might be criminal. #medicalmafiaWoof said:If you're only getting 50% off by paying cash you're a total fucking idiot.
At my old job our reimbursements were typically at about 30-40% of billed rate, which is what we got after dealing with all of the insurance shit. I saw times where we accepted 15% of what was billed when we paid cash, depending on the procedure. I'd say 25% is probably the average in the industry.
I think the way to go would be to have standardized single payer catastrophic and basic preventive care, and then let private insurance be the market for everything else, but also ensure prices are listed up front prior to treatment.
What I do think we need is a benefit that ensures everyone can go to the doctor once a year to get a check up (proven to save lives) and a safety net so that getting cancer doesn't mean a life of poverty. That leaves a giant gap for private insurance. Government would really only function as a reinsurer, and the costs would actually be pretty low, given the size of the risk pool.
What I do have problems with are the zero-give-a-fucks who think it is their god-given right to have EQUIVALENT coverage to those who pay for additional benefits. These are the fucks who end up in the emergency rooms for colds and sore throats and shit, sucking up resources and causing disruption in cost-structures that are ultimately passed on to working stiffs who DO give-a-fuck about personal responsibility.
It's also be time for the health care providers to seriously take a look at the ethics of the hippocratic oath - that shit was awesome in Plato and Socrates time when a few herbal mixes and some offerings to the gods passed for healthcare. You fuck physicians want to save the world for zero compensation, go right the fuck ahead - lawyers call it 'pro-bono' work. But giving us the higher morals excuse that you are bound by some fucking oath - therefore, you HAVE to provide service - you're just hypocrites, not hippocrates. You and your Providence/Multi-Care/KaiserPermanent fucks are just accounting magicians playing hide the sausage with billing costs. Somebody is paying for that 'honorable' medical service. And it sure as fuck ain't coming out of doctor's paychecks despite how loud they cry about it. -

Re: your point about the freeloaders
A few years ago I did some analysis on claims data for a couple smallish self-insured plans. It was pretty interesting to see the how the costs were spread out across the population. The pareto principle held, and about 10%-ish of the covered lives were responsible for 80%+ of the costs. When you dive into the top 10% and looked at the really high-cost people, there was a pretty even mix of horrible things that could strike anyone (e.g., kid with cancer, complex brain tumor, etc.) and the total slobs. The slobs were almost uniformly smokers with heart disease, high cholesterol, diabetes, and a litany of all of the other things you get when you eat cheeseburgers for every meal and sit on the couch all day. They literally use ambulances as taxis to get to the ER. Some insurance companies will pay nurses to visit these people on a daily basis, as it saves money for the plan overall. There aren't that many of them, but those are the people that need death panels. ASAP.
Here's an extreme example you can read about: http://wtop.com/news/2014/03/dc-judge-assigns-medical-guardian-to-excessive-911-caller/wtop.com/news/2014/03/dc-judge-assigns-medical-guardian-to-excessive-911-caller/ -
