Healthcare pricing commonly reflects inflated insurance-based costs. Insurance-based pricing and greater costs don’t mean better quality of care. Even with health insurance you are often better off paying for your routine care than using your insurance plan. At least you will see who you want to see and not be saddled with surprise bills a few weeks later.
