Good: You can get in to see doctors easier and they will see you for longer and the tier 1 (closed to new clients) will let you see your own doc if you go in the hospital. This is great for elderly parents. Bad: You have to pay a $99 fee to join and then a monthly retainer fee (so for me at 32 it is either $59 or $79 a month depending on the level of service) on top of my insurance..

Just wanted to post a primary care company which I HIGHLY recommend that's downtown in the Medical/Dental building called Qliance. I fit into a weird niche--I'm a freelancer who's going to school and while I have insurance, in order for it to be affordable I have a really high deductible---which means there's a big gap there if I need to get check-ups, etc. Anyhow, a friend of mine (fellow freelancer) told me about Qliance. I can't speak highly enough about them. They aren't covered by insurance and they aren't an insurance. The cost is sliding scale depending upon your age. My doctor spent an hour and a half going over my history, etc. just so she could be familiar with me personally. It kind of harkens back to the country doctor era. They're great people. They fill that niche. And, if you aren't insured at all it will at least give you comfort in knowing you can at least get a check up and do preventative care--at an affordable price! Anyhow, check them out. You won't be sorry you did. (and, no, I'm not getting paid to endorse them)
