Usually there's still an out of pocket max, like $5000.
But I guess that could depend on your insurance
It's such a scam and the people voting against universal care are the same ones who complain they don't go to the doctor because it's too expensive
I have a buddy who has his own dental practice. Incredibly smart, motivated individual. Hates the thought of universal healthcare. Also hates not getting paid. I just don't discuss it with him lol
I wonder how many don't go to the dentist because of poor or no insurance. He'd have more patients for sure
He would also be guaranteed payment. I just don't understand him. He does a ton of free work for people because he's truly a great guy. He would get paid for that work. Maybe he thinks he would make less money?
He'd probably have to work on more patients, since demand would surely shoot up.
