Door To Door House Calls
Health insurance is such a joke that some companies aren't accepting it
at all anymore. These companies are approaching healthcare the
old-fashioned way by sending doctors straight to patients' doors and
charging flat fees. Instead of taking health insurance and charging high
deductibles, the companies charge a simple, honest fee for their
services.The companies are also using computer apps to make the medical house calls easier. One company, a startup called Heal, charges $99 for a house call or $200 for a family checkup. The company operates like a mobile urgent care clinic and deploys fully trained doctors straight to a patient's front door to treat anything from strep throat to lacerations that need to be stitched. Heal, which is based in Los Angeles, even promises to have a doctor "to your sofa in under an hour."
