Not on a theoretical level, but how would you practically have to pay costs, access specialist doctors?

    I haven’t seen my pcp in like 3 years. $200 to go in for no reason and have them tell me I’m fat? No thanks.

    I should probably diy bloodwork though just to make sure I don’t have elevated white blood cell counts or sth

    Edit: the wait for pcps is structural bc they don’t earn the same exorbitant salaries as specialists but still have to pay backbreaking med school costs, so there’s a shortage.
