Can you still see a doctor without life insurance?
I see mine twice a year and I have no dental coverage. I just pay the bill in cash.
Reply:I think you mean health insurance and yes, you still see a doctor but it will be expensive.
Reply:Are you talking about Life insurance or Medical insurance?


Life insurance has nothing to do with getting medical treatment...if your mom has medical insurance, than yes you can see the dentist..find out what insurance she has..
Reply:If you have the money and are willing to spend on your poor tooth, i don't see why a dentist would not want to attend to you.
Reply:better come to India, here you don't need insurance for consulting a doctor.
Reply:They do take cash or credit card.
Reply:Life insurance is actually burial insurance. Health insurance would be what you're talking about. Many companies don't provide dental or vision insurance for their employees. The best thing to do is to go to the dentist and fork out the money, get it over with. Best of luck to you, hope you feel better soon.
Reply:No one has to have insurance in order to get medical care. Insurance is just a way of paying in advance for future medical care, or to make regular payments into a fund that will pay for major medical conditions.





Life insurance, health insurance, and dental insurance are 3 separate things.





At best dental insurance covers basic preventative dentistry and then only about 50% of the cost of dental work. Without insurance you just pay the bill up front - cash, check, or credit card.
Reply:Life insurance and medical insurance do not cover most dental visits. You need dental insurance for that.





Go to the dentist. They will help you with the tooth. You will, of course have to pay for the service, since you have no insurance.
Reply:You can ALWAYS see a doctor of any type without you having insurance. It will be a bit expensive but go to the dentist
Reply:Go to the ER. At least they will give you pain medication.
