I meant we (taxpayers) would all pay for it, and I was saying if there is no upfront costs I would be more inclined to go to the doctor. Which is where your example of the E.R., and my simply going to the doctor more often seem to agree.

I also worry about the hospital staff mistakes due to overworked etc. Which is another reason I don't go if I don't have to. I have "okay" health care coverage, but I worry about leaving more screwed up then I came in.
