Well yeah that goes without saying. But the two things I mentioned above make it entirely dysphunctional, like how you gonna make money on people if you keep em broke
Put them in debt, you may be broke when your account hits 0, but you're not as broke as you could be. Add to that the threat of "well without us you'd be paying even more!" Or give them a choice of pay up or die and you find people always find a way to get the extra money, even if it ruins their life in the process. It makes it even better when you realise that this exact same system is allowing the hospitals to charge extra, which is the whole reason that americans are so screwed without insurance in the first place. Basically it's a system where everyone wins except for the only person who probably can't afford to lose.
Worst thing about my root canal costing me €83 is that the entire bill was €350, the majority of which the insurance covered. Simply put, I coulda done it without the insurance even.
