USA accurate. Even more so - healthcare insurance picks your surgery center and specialists; even if it is 100+ miles from your home. Even if both are already IN your hometown. Even if you have used the local ones in the recent past. If insurance says the long distance ones are $1 cheaper to use, you are doing a 200 mile roundtrip for an eye checkup.
