  • I feel a preemptive pain when I receive a message, almost as if I’m going to get yelled at for taking too long to reply or for not fully understanding the message from every contextual angle possible to understand a hidden meaning that I’m supposed to infer from, or for expressing the wrong emotion/tone.

    It even happens when I just see the message notification

    Welp



  • If you think administrative waste is an issue with a single payer healthcare system, then imagine how much additional waste is created by having hospitals and clinics deal with multiple private insurers with their various plan coverages, exceptions, and deductibles.

    There’s also the differing pre-approval requirements for the same procedure to be covered by different insurers, as well as appeal processes for denials.

    Then there’s financing and collections for the people that have been treated without insurance. The hospitals and clinics still have to get reimbursed for their costs still, regardless of who’s paying.

    While the public system may have its inefficiencies, a private system is rather inefficient and moderately expensive at the best of times.
