    How the fuck can a bookstore evolve into a healthcare provider? Where the fuck are we living anyway? I need this to stop.

      Don’t worry, with all the pollution, war and climate change going around, we ain’t staying on this planet for too much longer.

    One medical is actually a pretty good service and it’s fucked up that Amazon bought them

          I’ve tried bookwyrm and hardcover and a few others. In general I think they’re getting there, but there’s weird edge cases where it’s not as smooth an experience. Partly because they don’t have a critical mass of users, partly because Goodreads really was in a pretty decent place when it effectively froze.

          All that’s going to improve over time, but atm, for me, switching costs from the old platform aren’t worth it.

    First thing that came to mind and I see others are here are of the same mind with platinum trauma response.

    So leaves me to wonder how far are we from the cyberware then?

    I am curious, does this monthly fee simply enable access to doctors that you then have to give additional money to? If so what is the out of pocket cost? Does it cover hospital stays? Does it cover medication? Or is all of that extra and out of pocket?

    I’m only asking because I have insurance. And it is significantly more per month. And it basically covers nothing other than the invented prices of medical care hospitals charge.

    A usual statement of benefits I get from my insurance is:

    Hospital billed $20,303 for service but we (insurance) only accept a bill of $3798 for this service so we paid them $1000 for the service and you, (our beloved customer) only pay the difference so please pay the hospital $2798 for the blood test they mistakenly coded.

    Does that happen with Amazon? Or are y’all paying $8/ month and 1) getting charged full cost at hospitals / clinics Or 2) just paying $8/month?

    (In case it wasn’t obvious I’m in the US and no, I am not exaggeration on my example or being sarcastic, I am genuinely curious)
