Why is healthcare so confusing???

I just got health insurance a couple months ago that covers one health exam a year. Now this is what confuses me. The primary care physician thing doesn’t make sense to me. Every time I’ve ever gone to a general medicine doctor for an exam it just seems like a waste of time. But if I go to an obgyn to get an exam I feel like if I ask questions unrelated they’re not gonna answer them. And then on top of that I’ve been having ankle pain. I’m from NY and normally you would go to urgent care for minor medical things that like. But we moved to another state and when my boyfriend sprained his ankle, urgent care treated us like we were wasting their time. There’s not many emergency rooms near us so people treat urgent cares like emergency rooms. So now I’m confused if I should even get it looked at.
