This honestly is likely not an Obamacare issue, but rather a you now have insurance issue(which you'd likely have regardless due to having a good job). You were getting charged regular check-up rates for something that was more than a regular check-up. Since it is now going through an insurance company, your doctor has to use their normal rate.

Personal experience isn't always the best way to determine if something is good or not. For me, Obamacare hasn't caused any issues. Insurance rates have been flat the past several years, no premium increases at all. Adjusted for inflation, the amount I see a doctor say something costs(before the insurance has the cost reduced) is less than what the cost was years ago when I paid cash.
I understand that this is not the case for everyone though.

If health insurance were not required, I would not have it. I never go to the doctor because I never get sick enough where I need to go or break bones. I'd be saving over $600 a year if I didn't have to have it.

Regardless of your insurance status, never going to the doctor isn't good idea. Preventative care saves money in the long run.

At 600/year, there's little reason to not get it unless it's garbage. Real purpose of insurance is for if something unexpected happens.

Isn't 75 bucks for 30 minutes still way to high?

Unless they actually treat or cure you why the fuck would they charge so much?


Because medical school costs $300,000.
