Yes and No, without insurance a doc visit and tests can run you around 300-400 dollars, maybe even more! Also, some doctors won't even see you if you dont have insurance unless you have cash to pay them in advance. Also, if you dont have money to pay, you can go to the Emergency room and they HAVE to take you, but then you end up paying around $2000 to $3,000 dollars. P.S. I have health insurance, and it costs me over $900 a month. The health care system is ridiculous in America, and will get worse if Obamacare is put into place...LOL, don't get me started on this topic.
