Look at Kaiser; they run a vertically integrated shop. They're fanatical about
not paying for any elective treatments even if it would improve quality of
preventive care to cover all the diseases they're legally required to cover
minimizing org-to-org friction
using the cheapest means of communication whenever possible (text > video >> in-person)
I never had my blood pressure and lab work more scrutinized, never had more help offered to lose weight, etc, than when I was a KP patient.
Turns out I have special medical needs and there is a specialist clinic near me, so I switched insurance. But I always felt that my doctor wanted to keep my ass out of the hospital because that is where his bonus came from.
Now SURGEONS, that's a different story.
So, some doctors suck, some don't?
Bet you can apply that logic across the board to all walks of life tbh. Some landlords are dickheads, some are just other people trying to get by.
and I say that with a dickhead landlord
If you can afford to buy 2 houses you're no longer "getting by", you're a 1%'er.
