This page is collecting the natural means to aid in different unhealthy conditions – quick and safe aid and relief of symptoms but NOT for treatment purpose as soon as the last one requires deeper diagnosis and individual approach integrating all aspects as an usual way of Ayurvedic healing.

Thanks to tlc.howstuffworks.com for the explanation.
A co-payment, or co-pay, is the flat amount you pay at the time of a medical service or to receive a medication. Each health insurance plan establishes these fees up front — they are often printed on your health insurance card. Insurance companies use these co-pays in part to share expenses with you. In addition to cutting a small portion of the costs, the co-pay is also used to prevent people from seeking care for every trivial medical condition they might encounter. (more…)
