The Future of Healthcare Could Be in Concierge Medicine

Kurt Mosley was speaking to a group of physicians when the subject of concierge medicine came up. He asked one of the doctors what they charge their patients for this type of guaranteed care.

The doctor told him $157.50 a month.

Mosley thought that was kind of arbitrary. Why the extra 50 cents?

"How did you arrive at that number?" Mosley asked.

"Well, that's how much you would spend on a pack of cigarettes a day. I figure if they can afford a pack a day, they can afford me for unlimited access," the doctor replied.
