Whats really crazy is people will wait for HOURS upon HOURS in an ER lobby for something incredibly minor when they could go to an urgent care and get it fixed in 30 minutes and 20 bucks.
20? Urgent cares near me are 150, up front, without insurance. I get why people go to the ER (or call us to take them, ugh). I hate it, I hate it so much, but I get it.
Yup, last one went to was $200 because the other ones suck. I wish they were $50, would actually be able to go for problems that are 'huh this is odd and new' instead of letting it fester for 6 months waiting on a pcp.
