You should hear my latest story. OK, you twisted my arm so I'll tell you. We have a new podiatrist working in our office. But his main office is in the Bronx w/ alot of Russian immigrants. He said that apparently, in Russia the doctors don't seem to have been respected too much, or maybe its just misunderstanding the US system. He's not sure. But he frequently has new patients tell him that no, they don't want to pay their copay in advance (which he requires, just like we do). They want to see the doctor and evaluate how they are treated. Then, they will DECIDE if they will pay the co-pay. WTF?
