Why there is a need for Personal Physicians:
Over the past decade, physicians have become increasingly dissatisfied with managed care - a system that, studies show, can interfere with both quality care and the doctor-patient relationship. Under the managed care system, a physician is forced to maximize his or her patient load and, as a result, often sacrifices first-class care. Physicians across the country are responding with a subscription-based service model, known as "concierge care," which enables them to shift the focus of care from quantity to quality and restore the integrity of the doctor-patient relationship. Under this model, patients pay an annual "subscription" fee for health care services, allowing their Personal Physician to limit his or her patient load while providing more personalized and responsive care. Services may include a 24-hour on call doctor, immediate or same-day scheduling, longer and more comprehensive appointments, phone and email consultations, wellness planning, and facilitated emergency room or hospital visits.
