re: The insanity of the socialization of our medical care

She mostly goes to the ER for complaints of pain. The pain is always ill defined and vague. It could be back pain or abdominal pain. Multiple tests are usually run that come back negative. Sometimes she is given pain medication and sometimes she is not

Even if the cost is written off, it is a waste of the resources and time of the ER. It makes the wait time longer for others who need it.

She is going to multiple ERs and sometimes 2 in the same day
