I read about concierge medicine service this morning and the doctors that charge US$10,000 or more a year in retainers fee to avail themselves to patients who may require emergency medical attention or long appointments with the doctor. I am sure most of us are way too familiar with the short doctor's appointments we have after setting the appointment for months. We are usually made to wait for a long time and when it is our turn, we go in and out of the consultation room like a breeze.
For people who could afford it and unfortunately suffer from an illness or two that require constant medical attention, concierge medicine would provide access to physicians at any time of the day on short notice. These concierge medicine doctors would accommodate their patients even if they schedule hour long appointments.
Yes, it’s a little costly but when you think about it, it’s a fair price to pay to have access to a personal physician.
