This reminds me of Czech republic so much...
I have been trying to figgure out how exactly our healthcare system is even supposed to work for last 5 years, and at this point, I'm too tired to even try.
At least, the realization, that I live +2h of travel away from "my doctor" who I don't even trust made me realize I might at least take care of my health myself.

Also, dealing with doctors was the last straw that thought me, that people use beaurocracy as a tool to deny people without looking them into eyes.
I had a tooth acke, to I went to a dentist, and just sat there. Out of nowhere, he had time to take care of 10 minute drilling. But he complained that I was supposed to call him and he would give me a term in 2 weeks.
He still could have given me the term. I could do nothing against it. But he knew that all I needed was 10 minutes of his time and saying to my eyes that I sould wait would be just pointlessly cruel.
That is why I never use the beaurocratic way whenever I get a choice. It is just useless. If you accept the beaurocracy in your life, you are literaly saying, that your life is so useless, you can afford to spend weeks waiting for a 10 min of their time. Noone in their right mind will fight you, when you ask directly.
Sorry for random and unstructured rant. I just needed to put my thoughts on the topic out in any way possible.
