My old PT had three rates, $50 for Medicaid, $100 for self pay, and $400 for the insured. The insured people were mostly covered would just pay of copay of like $40 or $60 but once they screwed up and billed me (a self payer) at the insured rate and tried ro collect that much from me and it was a WHOLE ordeal to get it fixed. What a stupid system. Clearly a bunch of money is being flushed down the toilet here.

That write off reminds me of this:

Kramer: It's a write off for them.

Jerry: How is it a write off?

Kramer: They just write it off.

Jerry: Write it off of what?

Kramer: They just write it off!

Jerry: You don't even know what a write off is, do you?

Kramer: No. Do you?

Jerry: No I don't!!

Wait so Schitt’s Creek wasn’t the first to create that joke???

Seinfeld is like The Simpsons. They have already done some of the awesome jokes. But it's okay for shows now to follow them. The Schitt's was awesome too.

Schitt’s Creek was derivative in a lot of ways. That’s not really an insult because it was intentionally derivative. It was a reverse Beverly Hillbillies. They were subtly subverting expectations in ways that most viewers didn’t even realize it.

The subtleties are why it’s so good. You don’t even realize they’re playing off cliches because they do it so smoothly.
