This December I'm participating in An Advent of Gratitude to help remind me of the gifts I already have, what I often take for granted, and what I can and should be grateful for.
Today, the challenge said that if I had visited the doctor during the past year for something relatively minor it would cost me $2.
I have been very healthy the past year. However, when I checked the past year's claims on my health insurance company website I was amazed to see that there were 13 of them! Eight were from chiropractor 'tune ups', which I schedule to keep my minor aches and pains at bay.
I had a routine physical in August, blood work done, and then a follow up doctor visit to discuss the findings.
Good thing I only have to pay a flat two dollars for the year, and not for each visit!

The important thing is you've been healthy.
ReplyDeleteAMEN!
DeleteWell, I don't count mine as minor, so I'm holding at 30.
ReplyDeleteYes, you get a pass :-)
DeleteI think its wonderful what you are doing. I went to the doctor three times over my knee injury, one trip being to the ER. That would probably be more than $2 worth. Many people can't see a doctor for anything.
ReplyDeleteI suspect your visits were necessary, not for minor things.
