Dr. Rippoff and the wonderful American Health Care system, Ranked 13th in the world.

$7250 for a shot.  Kadizzle paid $10.  Anyone who thinks the United States has the best medical care in the world, needs some medical marijuana.  Kadizzle needed a Lupron shot, which actually might cost $1,500, but no.  The doctor in Payson somehow managed to get the cost up to $7250.  First there was the “New patient charge” $350.  What a crock of shit.  The system is rigged so Kadizzle could not just got to any hospital and have a nurse stick the needle in his butt. Nope,  Kaddizzle had to drive to Payson twice for a trip total of 300 miles just to be a “New Patient”.   Kadizzle had in his possession a prescription for the Lupron shot from a doctor in Bismarck, but no,  fraud, scam, American medical system.  Why couldn’t a person just have a nurse in Payson put the Lupron in Kadizzles butt?  Well, because that would be simple, cost effective, and save everyone a ton, but no that aint goin happen.  Thank God the insurance company and medicare told orld Dr. Rippoff to go to hell and did not pay his extortion price.  Dr. Ripoff ended up with about $600 for 15 minutes of work if you stretch it. So if Dr. Rippoff makes 2,400 dollars and hour and works for eight hours my calculator says Dr. Rippoff gets $19,200 a day.  That comes to about $5 million per year.  Not bad for giving shots.  Well lets assume Dr. Rippoff only make one fifth of that,  A million a year seems like a good salary for a Dr. practicing Urology. Now, keep in mind that is just Dr. Rippoff’s game.  The rest of the gang of thieves, such as the pharmaceutical gang make out pretty well also in this game.  No other country in the world would let them charge $1,500 for that shot. They were getting $3,000 before anyone noticed.  My doctor in Bismarck explained how the pharmaceutical companies were giving doctors kickbacks for the shots.  Which means good old Dr. Rippoff actually made more on the shot than Kadizzle gave him credit for.  Most amazing was the Dr. in Bismarck said the shot only works for two years, but doctors were prescribing it for five years just to get the extra cheese.  Well you keep listening to Rush and the Republican and running from the national health care every other country has embraced.
