My girlfriend and I recently visited Rome. While there, a stray cat attacked her. The injury was bad enough to need a doctor, so we visited a hospital’s emergency unit and waited under an hour for care. The doctor wrote a prescription and gave my girlfriend a shot to ease the pain. We had no idea what to expect in respect to cost: Italy has a universal health-care system, but we were not citizens. In total the doctor visit cost us nothing, and we paid $50 for medicine.

so I can't write a decent headline to save my life
so sue me
thanks
But see now you have a formula
At least for international posts (and I think they are good (a) because they're evidence and (b) because if they're like this one, they're little narratives about people.
So, for this presumed international series, the formula is:
Where the data points are concise phrases that point out how the assumptions we make about how medical care should be are wrong. "No co-pay? WTF
?" And so forth.
Easy peasy. Takes a minute. Don't wait for me!
And what do you mean, "not save your life"? Single payer might do just that some day!
