That is exactly why I tend to carefully fold up patient information sheets, stash them in my purse, and forget about them. It's a self-defense mechanism.
Also, I was flabbergasted and enraged when I found out my health insurance didn't cover routine eye exams. My eyes are part of my body and glaucoma runs in my family. What the hell, you know? (Mind you, my teeth are also part of my body and of course dental stuff is not remotely covered ever by anyone, in part because of the myth that if you are virtuous with toothbrushing you will never have any problems ever.)
