[quote=Anonymous]I posted earlier about my parents doing concierge service. I should note they don't live in DC. They go to separate practices and both of them have really enjoyed the concept. I don't know how much extra it costs them, but they are self-insured and have had problems getting insurance in the past b/c of supposed pre-existing conditions. They can't afford to shuttle around to different doctors for various ailments b/c their co-pays are too expensive (several hundred dollars per co-pay), so having a doctor who can take the time to sit down and really discuss problems/options for them is worth whatever extra they pay. My parents are very frugal and wise with their money so I would have to assume they think this is worth it. I know my mom does have her dr's cell phone number and her dr. is super responsive, especially when my parents travel out of town (like to see us here) and medical issues arise.[/quote]
