They steal your health but not before they steal your money.
Holistic doctor offices are constantly receiving criticism of 1. The cost because it’s out of pocket and 2. The cost combined with the quackery. I am defending them. I am defending myself here. We often have maximum of 100% margins (2x the cost of goods) or nowadays even less than that. This example in the video is 24x the cost of goods and 2325% margins. Let that number sink in for a moment. I get it, they have to pay a bunch of people and systems and services and merchant fees. Yup so do we. Yet people have the audacity to call Chiropractors, Acupuncturist, Naturopaths, etc QUACKS. “They don’t take insurance (because the won’t pay us fairly) and they charge a bunch for supplements (well the company controls the cost actually, we just provide the convenience of carrying it in the office).
What people are doing now:
- canceling conventional health insurance
- or buying the bare minimum for emergencies
- switching to Christian health share programs
- beefing up the HSA
- asking for cash prices at medical facilities
If insurance companies lose money, they will probably pay attention, reflect how they’re scamming Americans, and revise how they do business.
