Most doctors are already at capacity. They don’t have anything to win by staying open later, and they can’t charge a premium for it.
The few docs I know having trouble filling their waiting room work evenings and weekends, and some do house-calls.
- ams6110 8y agoMany of the clinics here that are open late do charge an "after hours" fee. It's about $20 tacked on to the base office visit fee. "Urgent care" walk-in clinics don't and are typically open 8-8 or so.
- arkades 8y agoWhere is “here”? In the US your rates are contracted with insurers, so for any patient with insurance, a cash add-on is fraud.
