Medicaid is weirdly good. It has weird quirks and less options usually, but it’s practically just a more functional insurance than a lot of employer provided ones (which are often worse than marketplace)
I have a dentist, a gastroenterologist, an orthopedic doctor, a pneumologist, a dermatologist, a throat nose and ear doctor, am oculist, a psychiatrist, a psychological therapist who’s also MD and my “normal” doctor and man I feel sick after writing this…
The dentist is quite expensive but only because I want non standard treatment. The rest is paid by the public insurance.
It’s normal in the US too. I’m on Medicaid and have a dentist and a podiatrist.

I misread oculist as occultist and had a good laugh.
Usa insurance being tied to employment is the biggest scam
