I don't mind aeeing an NP or PA for routine/no big deal issues. But, I don't think you should have the same copay to see them as you do to see a physician.
Your insurer doesn't care. They pay NP's 15-20% less while you still pay the same. Who do you thinks pushing this? Doctors? shite no. Insurances, pharmacy chain retail clinics, big hospital owned clinics. They've duped people into taking a bait and switch. And pushed the "they're just as good as doctors if not better!!!!!" Nobody and I mean NOBODY gave a shite when doctors where standing against this. Now people can reap it.

Dude, I work for a physician and NP, both excellent. Bring the snark down a little. I know how it works. I just think it's dumb.
