if I ever do need a doctor I’ll just go to the ER and forget to bring my ID - they cant refuse to provide care, after all.
You think all they do is check ID? Really?
Hope you never contract a chronic illness. I know, I know, that will never happen because you eat right and exercise and brush your teeth three times a day.
The point was you didn’t think you needed that insurance because you’re healthy. You can get cancer at any time. Good luck getting chemo treatments without insurance. You can get in a serious car accident at any time either as a driver, a passenger or a pedestrian. Good luck getting physical therapy without insurance.
Nope. I had a friend who only found out he had testicular cancer because he thought he had a hernia. He didn’t have insurance either. He’s tens of thousands of dollars in crushing debt now… but it was that or die. Believe it or not, the ER didn’t treat it.
And, again, good luck getting physical therapy after a serious accident without insurance. Or is your good health going to protect you from being slammed into by a car?

and work out & have high muscle/low fat ratio, and live a clean life. it’s very simple to do
That will definitely ensure you avoid any genetic disorders that may be in your future. For sure.
don’t have any, other than poor eyesight. everyone in my family has glasses or has has lasik perfomed
You have no idea if you have any. Cancer can happen at any time in your life and it can be genetic. And that’s just one example.
ah, but that’s what the ER is for. and the insurance I’m forced to pay for if it’s some long, protracted cure.
Sorry… you think the ER can treat cancer? Really?

The ER isn’t a solution to every ailment.
yeah, you’ve got a point there, ER would just be the place to start.
obviously if I had cancer, I’d know it - and likely, a history of cancer in the family, but I don’t have that problem, praise be to God.
