Hey y’all,

This is specifically for people in the US healthcare system.

If you are getting a test or procedure done, ask them what the cost is without insurance. It may end up being significantly cheaper.

I had to go get a basic metabolic panel blood test today and they were going to charge me $350. When I asked what the cost was without insurance, it was $100. Mind you, I have good insurance. It’s around $1500 a month.

This has happened multiple other times with different people that I know. Just asking could save you a significant amount of money.

    I love having to spend insane amounts of money to be able to exist in my body without wanting to die #spendmaxxing #insurancepilled

      Every so often I get annoyed at Australia’s healthcare system, then I remember the US. Sorry dude.
