This compassionate doctor decided to celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Day by picking up the bill for his patients’ visits.
As a means of honoring the heartwarming holiday, Dr. Don Rice covered the co-pays for all 80 of his patients who stopped by the Urgent Care Clinic of Lincoln, Nebraska on Monday.
Instead of giving the patients a bill, Dr. Rice gave them small cards that explained his reasoning for the free visits along with the hashtag #KindnessIsContagious.

Collectively, Dr. Rice says he spent $4,000 on his’ co-pays.
The physician’s generous gesture was reportedly inspired by the recent death of a family friend who—despite having two different kinds of cancer—was constantly being kind to other people.
“I think that we have a culture that sometimes forgets that we can have a much better world if we start being kinder to each other,” Rice told 10/11 News in the interview below.
