#1 In the early 1950's a doctor meets a father and son after hours at his office. The doctor sets the lads broken arm and puts it in a cast. The father asks the doctor "what do we owe you." The doctor replies "how are you going to pay, insurance or cash?" The father replies "is there a price difference?" The doctor replies... "yes, insurance is $50., cash is $20." The father hands the doctor a $20. bill and thanks him for the late office call.

#2 Now the doctor can't take cash payments at a lower rate than 'book' charges (if he takes insurance payments); he does however get paid less (a lot less) than book by insurance companies. Cash payers subsidize insurance recipients.
