But [gasp] that's . . . that's . . . that's . . . What IS that?

Research published this month in Health Affairs notes that women consume significantly more medical care than men.

“Except for children, total spending for and by females was greater than that for and by males, for most services and payers.”

Cheese, wouldn't that, you know, mean that medical insurance premiums should be higher for women?

No, silly - because that wouldn't be faaaairrr. It would be discrimination. And that's wrong. Isn't that right?

Who knew?
