They charge you a lot less if you don't have insurance, and a lot more when you do.
Actually they dont. I went to an eye doctor for a full eye exam I never had one, this was years ago. I paid $150 cash. I had told my Dad and he asked what did you pay I told him. He said you should of negotiated which I didn't think about. Because my father worked for a large health ins company and he said for that same exam they paid that Dr $35. He did contracts with Doctors.
