There is significant amount of doctors providing mediocre quality services in US (and given the developments like the rise of AI there will be even more of it). What does economics suggest you're to do with mass amounts of cheap low quality goods? Fastfood it. McDonalds for medical services. If that is what One Medical really does, then we have another Uber/AirBnb/etc.
>If you actually want good medical care, over your lifetime, your best bet is to build a strong relationship with a good doctor. If you also want to never wait, concierge medicine is where you ultimately need to be (doctor is trading off a higher volume of patients for a fee to a small number of patients).
Yes, good restaurant with star chief and great ambience where you're a valuable regular ...
- novok 7y agoWith one medical, many of the practitioners are not doctors, but NPs and such. Some were good as far as I could tell, but others I've used are so so. Most of the value of one medical was the easy app based scheduling, but since I've realized that something like zocdoc exists, most of it's value has disappeared for me. Also they don't integrate with things like apple health, while larger hospitals tend to have integration built into them. Because of that, I'm not very bullish about one medical overall, since a combo of zocdoc + apple health provides most of their benefit, with an expanded set of services available with a set of doctors that are larger than what one medical would provide.
