With our growing healthcare concerns, here is a question...
If my husband and I are both sick and only one goes to the doctor, since we both have the same symptoms, should the doctor treat both of us, hence save us money by only seeing one of us and writing a prescription for both? hence...we save money!
If an entire household were to get the flu, is it okay for just one member to go to the doctor to save money and get enough of an antibiotic for the entire household?

just a thought!
It'll never happen. And the reason is that if one person - only one - in such a treatment ended up dying because he/she had something else, the lawsuits would be so numerous and so huge that that plan would be shut down immediately.
1 wrong diagnosis equals a lawsuit. 1 missed diagnosis plus a wrong diagnosis equals lots of lawsuits.
