Yep, I know of no other industry that can say that. Yes, I'm a HCW, but the amount of unknowns in billing patients is astoundin. Trying to decipher billing codes and what exactly needs to be worded in a patients chart for "insurance" company doctors to approve or deny. Why does insurance need to dictate how much is paid for a procedure based on what kind of insurance they have and what kind of reimbursement they are going to get or not get. We always like working with "correctional institutions" because we always know they (taxpayers) will pay.

Legal.

You’re the General Counsel of a company and you hire Fuckstick, McGee and Taint law firm to assist with a matter. They do the work and send the bill later. That paradigm is shifting with the birth of legal tech and in house legal leaders who have been hired to actually add value rather than just play golf with the managing partner at the biggest firms in town to get a 10% discount on work you were already writing a blank check for; but it’s still pretty prevalent.

Can you imagine trying to build a house and when you ask the GC how much it’s going to be, he tells you that you will find out when it’s done? In any other industries we would tell these people to get fucked and provide a breakdown of costs and phases.

We’ve know for a long time that there are a lot of ‘market failures’ in the healthcare industry. Needs much more government involvement to overcome these failure than we’re currently getting.
