[quote=Anonymous]I am in a concierge practice. It was a traditional practice until about five years ago. While my frugal side does not like paying a few thousand a year, it is definitely worth it. The service is improved, not because it was bad before, but because the practice is no longer a volume business the doctor is able to give you the time to really understand your medical issues and plan solutions. More importantly, getting referrals, which insurance companies require, is much easier. In a sense, the referrals pay for the concierge fee. Finally, it is much easier to reach doctor and see doctor when necessary. In an ideal world all would have this type of access without concierge fees. Absent that medical nirvana, I would recommend concierge medicine with a good GP. Health, like anything else, is something in which one must invest.[/quote]
