Avoids headaches: Insurance companies are necessary to pay for unexpected health expenses in any country where healthcare is expensive. True insurance plans just pool people's money and help pay for treatments when needed, because we all will get sick and we all will have our turn to benefit from insurance. However, insurance companies in America also create restrictions and cause enormous headaches for doctors.
