his patients will pay a monthly "membership" fee of $10 to $100, based on their age. I like the concept, and most people can afford those fees. I think perhaps a better approach would be a "synthetic" one, when patients pay those moderate membership fees, and then pay additionally fee for service. Those additional fees can be moderate, and may involve use of insurance. Recall that those patients will still need to maintain health insurance - for use in case of hospitalizations, specialists, labs etc. In return this doc will be able to provide quality care, spend time with patients, take more calls, emails.... not a bad deal for all concerned.
