1. Why aren't companies complaining more, when
they are under such pressure to pay out more?
2. Even if you have coverage, sometimes it is hard to find doctors that take your insurance, or you have to fight to have procedures, services or medications covered. Or you are very limited to
the number of visits you can make - for OT or mental health, etc.
3. It will take compromise and creative thinking from all parties TOGETHER - doctors, insurance cos, government, and patients TALKING TO EACH OTHER to come up with a whole new model.
4. Many doctors especially in NYC don't even
take any insurance at all.
