Does that really make any sense at all?
Make it illegal and the provider is going to bite his lip and provide the care instead of getting sued, or fined, or rehabilitated by the state. All the while in the back of his/her mind he/she is going to be uncomfortable and bolstering him or herself so those negative consequences don't come to pass. Brain power that should be used to diagnosis and treat you is going to be tied up dealing with his/her own discomfort and finding the strength to do what they don't want to do.
Why? So people like Esquilax don't get butthurt cause some doctor somewhere doesn't want to behave they way he thinks they should behave.

If the doctor doesn't bill the doctor doesn't get paid so Esquilax and your concern here is a hollow one. If the doctor is an employee, then it really between the employer and the employee.....even though you progressotard always like to stick your noses in others people business....its really none of your concern.
So basically you're okay with doctors getting punished or fired for their discriminatory behavior, you just don't want the rationale to be anything that might cut into your baseless, arbitrary bigotry.
Wow, what a fucking principled hero of the downtrodden christians you are.
I am okay with doctors getting punished for committing fraud or violating the terms of their employment. What part about that is difficult for you to understand? Are you really this dense?
