Primary care services are the highest value treatments in healthcare. I write regularly here on how primary care teams can improve health and reduce cost for patients with cardiometabolic disease. This article is about a broken healthcare system, medical debt, and irrational healthcare finance. It makes some great points and is well worth your time. It discusses deductibles and copays which prevent many patients from getting the care they really need. There should be no copays for primary care visits and critical generic medicines for cardiovascular and related conditions. You can save money and lives all day long with a system like that.
Yup! Absolutely.
