Even as an existing patient, I’ve been quoted wait times of more than three weeks to see my PCP.

- emodendroket 9y agoMe too, but it seems like there's a hierarchy depending on what your complaint is. When I needed to schedule a follow-up post-hospital discharge they had no problem getting me in, but when I had other complaints it was see an NP or wait months.
- walshemj 9y agoYes as they say that's what the receptionist is to triage patients so that the worried well or those with a cold who want antibiotics dont get seen as quickly as those of with chronic conditions
- emodendroket 9y agoI think it's not quite the same as what Gawande describes, but a similar enough idea.
