What you just described honestly sounds a lot like direct pay here in the states. If you google “direct pay doctors” in your city you will find some. Doctors offering direct pay are cash only. They charge a small monthly fee. Here in Missouri it’s about $100/month. For that $100/month you get seen the same day!!! I haven’t been able to get seen by a doctor the same day since I was like 5 and that was 1980. Usually it’s a week or so before an appointment can be made. You also get an hour with the doctor. No rushing you in and out to increase turnover. Most things up to minor urgent care are included as well including stitches and lacerations. You only pay for materials used. Which is usually very cheap. A couple bucks for gauze. A couple for stitches. Medication and labs massively reduced from insurance rates. Flu shots are free. Etc Direct pay providers are becoming more common as more and more doctors say “screw insurance and federal government red tape and regulations”. They are just absolutely done with the mess and pain of insurance and government regulations. Most even provide house calls! House calls! I haven’t seen a doctor do house calls since little house on the prairie! Seriously if you are in the states look into it! The wife and I are more than likely moving to direct pay with a high dedeuctible catastrophic insurance plan this year and we will be saving over $500/month on our employee provided Cadillac insurance plan. |
