[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the doctors in the practice are actually aware of this shadiness going on, then shame on them. It's one thing if it actually makes the visit take longer or they have to do extra work. 60 seconds of talking that you would have done anyway is just a scam. [/quote] Of course they know. Private equity bosses give doctors quotas. [/quote] Well not me. I'm now bringing it up at the beginning of every well visit and letting them know I do not wish to discuss anything that will trigger a bill. If enough people do this, it will stop. The entire point of ACA mandating free preventative health care is so that people will actually GET preventative health care. This nonsense is going to achieve the exact opposite of that. It took me forever to find a non-shady dentist too. I will go on another PCP quest if need be.[/quote]
