Now Sam’s Club is offering full service! Tire rotation AND health care (do you hear my sarcasm?). For $99/year Sam’s Club offers a health care plan that includes “at-home screening tests” (I am unsure what these tests might be . . . do you draw your own blood?), “hotline to nurses, health alerts and reminders and sends a summary of the plan to each patient’s physician.”
This is reportedly intended to add to a patient’s care. . . it seems disjointed and takes patients further away from a “medical home.” (That’s me. . . my patient’s medical home is me–not Sam’s).
Concerning. . . hmmmmmm.
