Actually, I have no idea whether it's more expensive to have an office visit with a physician for a fairly routine illness like, say, strep throat, or a fairly routine preventive measure like a vaccination. Do you?

<<ER care is horrendously expensive; we want the state - us - to be picking up the tab for as little of that as possible.>>

Just a little aside here. My cousin had a union worker for Cat as a neighbor. The neighbor would go n a bender every Saturday night. Every Saturday morning he would go in to the emergency room and get two Excedrin at a cost of $120. Saved him the $3 of buying a bottle of them. Insurance paid.
