How could this possibly work out for her financially? To make 120k a year, she would have to be doing this with.. 200 patients; and I think the average GP makes a bit more than that in the US. That doesn't like a good bargain on her end.
200 patients at one hour per is a bit more than a month of 9-5s.
If I visited my GP once per 1.5 months I’d be paying a fuckload more than $50/mo in copayments alone, in addition to my incredible premiums.
Healthcare becomes pretty affordable when you’re not paying for actuaries and other scammers.
I'm at about 1 hour per year with my GP (I guess they can be spending additional time on notes or whatever, but I don't think it's much).
I could see something like this being useful for me; I'm constantly nagging my physician for different drugs I am triaging for a condition I'm dealing with. But, in that case, I wouldn't be the ideal patient for the physician. I wish this kind of thing could work, but I'm not sure how I see it working in practice, unless you move up market and charge more.
