Back when I was working for an HMO (health maintanance organization.... not to be confused with drafter's nickname or sexual preference) we gave all kinds of lip service (once agan not the drafter kind) to the value of prevention now vs greater health care cost later...... shots, exams, etc..... we actually gave new birth families (delivered by the review nurses and I) a child car seat while in the hospital and installed it for their way home. The thought was to prevent injury etc. After a few years we ****canned that stuff because we realized that while long term it may save money, short term it cost us money and the long term savings could very well be realized by a company other than ours.
