This contract is reflected in the treatment the patient receives and the doctor is not to reveal details of the their contract with the patient.


That's interesting.
My neurologist, takes NO INSURANCE.
That's probably why he can afford to be so kind and caring!

Many doctors are looking at dumping traditional health insurance and or starting their own health insurance that better treats patients.

ok i think thats great and all. but, i think that some of us that can no way shape or form pay for these type serevics will be screwed. i have docs that take insurance and treat me like a human being ask about my family etc and take more then 15 mintues a vist with me. that is the key that i found to haveing a good patient dr relationship my neuro takes at least 1.5 hrs with each patient and that is why there is such a wait and some people understand why their waiting and others not so much but i will wait to be treated by a doctor that takes the time to listen and talk with me

this is just my opinion
