Hopefully will make it much much faster for me to do the work. And eventually should replace much of what I do. I hope.
FYI: every doctor should be in the business of putting themselves out of business, either by eradicating disease or increased efficiency.
Agreed. I figure much the same in primary care. My guess is it will 5X PCP productivity. Which will make the primary care “shortage” a thing of the past.
It will play out like this: you can see a teleprovider 24/7/365 with Zero copay OR you can schedule an appointment 2 weeks from now and wait in the waiting room. The insurance will say 50% less and doctors will make 2-3X d/t productivity gains. Patients won’t be forced but the majority will prefer it and the rest will die out in time. Exciting times.
