If we are writing to a member of congress who does not support universal healthcare, is there something we can ask of them to help their constituents solve the problems with direct healthcare? If we are always asking for universal healthcare as a solution — and I believe that it is the best solution — but they’ve registered their opposition to it or the Republican majority House will never pass it, asking them to support universal healthcare will be a dead end for getting positive movement.
I also wonder whether there are differences in direct healthcare contracts. If so, what are the essential provisions one needs in order to make one of those plans worthwhile? You are seeing low and high end contracts of this sort, so there are some contracts that may provide better access and relief to the administrative burden of providers.
Hi Gary. Thanks for this insightful comment. I found one company that charges about $50k/year per person they get you immediate access to specialists within a day. They also demand you have comprehensive insurance. I will think about a 2ndary type of recommendation. It is complicated.

Yikes! There have got to be direct care plans that are worth buying for at least some of the rest of us!

There are. Prices are nominally 30 to 300 per month. No guidelines on what they provide for the bucks.
