My healthcare provider sent me a notice for my annual wellness check which I didn't respond to. I was going to "decline" but there was a warning that declining would terminate my relationship with them, so I just didn't respond. Candidly, I wouldn't care if the terminated our relationship, but in the event I actually do need medical care it makes it more of a hassle. I am done with doctors, especially the ones I have access to that are all part of some for-profit healthcare system. Good riddance.

But you see they care so very deeply about your Wellness (TM) that they simply have to deny you future healthcare if you decline the Wellness check up.

It's all compassion, and the beauty of it, the deep ethical beauty moves one to tears.

We had to terminate our relationship since you declined our generous offer to inject you with poison. But, "This hurts us more than it hurts you." And it actually does hurt them more than me. They lose out on some money (and they don't care) and I am sparred being chastised to accept vaccines I refuse. In my mind it is a win-win.

I got one of those too. They want to do a 'home' visit. Nope. No thanks, no way, no how. They pestered me all last year and pester me now with robocalls and letters. I keep ignoring them. Tried to opt out last year. Nope. They're back worse than ever. Sucks how many Americans with money are jumping ship and emigrating, as if this isn't happening everywhere else. It is.
