I need to see a doctor about once a quarter for an ongoing issue and ended up switching to a DPC doctor. I pay a subscription out of pocket and extras are a flat rate menu, and they simply do not take insurance. However, it's been way cheaper overall and I have had exactly zero phone calls aside from setting appointments. No billing issues, no surprises, no middlemen, no problems. Oh, and I can have an appointment as soon as this week if I need one. No 8 month runaround just to get a referral.
The reason it works is because the doctors do not have to staff a billing department. the office runs like a '2 pizza team.' Just delete bureaucracy, it isn't helping us.
