This shows how corrupt and outrageous the prices charged for medical is, here in U.S. Perhaps it would be better to get rid of Doctors all together, except for some specialists whose work can’t be done by the patient.
There will always be a need for good competent doctors. As a monitoring procedure, I would endorse self-administered blood panels, however, raw data without knowledgable interpretation, could prove more disasterous than the cost of a doctors visit.
The “high cost” of medicine in the United States lies not at the doorstep of the doctors, but at the system that perpetuates a litigious platform – with or without cause; high insurance premiums paid by physicians; inability of patients to pay resulting in upaid bills; and, the intervening of insurance companies in medical decision making.
A doctors office or practice, is a business. It must make a profit, or it ceases to exist. Think of yourself as a “business”. If your employer could no longer pay you a wage because of the above issues, would you want the employer to raise the cost of its product so you could have a “profit” (wage) or would you simply clean off your desk and never come back to work.
