That is not a solution. Paying a monthly fee - for doctor's visits is not

going to help you if you need lab tests, diagnostics or a hospital visit. I have looked into that and really don't see where it would benefit people in the long run. One such article says it gives you the satisfaction of having more time with your doctor while the doctor likes it because it puts more money in their pocket.

To me, it sounds like just another scam instead of a solution.
