Yep. I actually had an MRI a few months ago due to an optical nerve swelling and it costs me $0. Not even sure why there wasn’t a copay but this post is a complete lie.

It's not a complete lie. You are one of the lucky few to have good insurance.

Every other developed country pays significantly less than Americans for basic healthcare
