Really what it should be is that if a doctor prescribes unnecessary care, they should go after the doctor, not the patient. Doctors have malpractice insurance. If the health insurance can’t win a case of malpractice, then they should pay the bill. Why are patients in the midfle here at all.

It’s the same trick as rebranding bank robberies to identity theft. It puts the blame on the consumer who can’t afford to defend themselves.
Huh, I hadn’t thought of that as a Crying Indian.
Patients usually have the least amount of power. That’s why.
My attitude is that if the doctor prescribes unnecessary care there’s a professional board for that.
Though let’s be real, the health insurance for profit industry is the problem and it’s not going to get better until we get rid of it
Yeah, but the professional board is kinda like an HOA board. Should be more like a jury of all regular doctors or something.
