As for the cash copay, well shit.... would you take credit from people these days? Not me. Cash only baby.

Sure. What are they going to do, chargeback? I mean they could, but what's the likelihood of that? My guess is that the cash requirement is because the doctor may be tight on funds so they want instant money (waiting for a credit card money can take a bit) or maybe they are skimming some under the table? Or even to save on fees. I was that a restaurant last week and they took 5% off the bill if you paid in cash as opposed to credit card. That 5% would not cover the credit card fees, but it is instant money and would allow them to skim a little under the table.
