No, cheaper for those with insurance, too, as the office doesn't have to pay three extra people to work just to file insurance claims. Thus the doctors office doesn't have to build that charge into their office call charge, etc. They use their insurance still for catastrophic, hospitalization, etc. Don't forget that all that paperwork filing costs money, from the doctor to the insurance company - eliminate that, and you eliminate a huge amount of healthcare costs. You do not HAVE to file an insurance claim, just because you are covered.
