what role does convenience play in the economics of it all? it doesn't.
i guess this will just all be done by rubbing the magical unicorn and waiting for money to rain from the sky as we go through a massive economic depression.

What really pisses me off is the the AMA opposed WalMart from opening clinics in their stores to provide people cheap access to basic care...open every day with no appointments necessary....mostly to treat things like ear and sinus infections, strep throat, lacerations and other minor things.
We have a clinic nearby which is open from 5- 10 pm and will treat you for $90. Otehr charges apply if tests-medication needed. It is run by doctors & nurses after normal hours to help those who don't have insurance or those who don't want to use the emergency room or wait for an appt. at their own dr.
No tax money is used....these doctors saw a niche & filled it. They make money & people get help.
