One night at “urgent care” a man asked the receptionist how he was going to get home. She looked lost for a moment, then asked him how he had gotten to the hospital. He had taken the bus, so she politely answered that they were unable to provide transportation home. He was not happy with this, and demanded a taxi voucher. It amazes me what people expect from our health care system, and that they have no appreciation for the fact that they can walk into a hospital and receive 1000’s of dollars of medical treatment that costs them nothing…
