Grand Junction CO has had a successful health care model for years that sounds very much like what USF/The Villages is proposing. There was a recent PBS program on how it works but I can't remember the name of the program. Anyway, you can Google "Grand Junction Health Care" to find several articles about how they deliver some of the best health care in the nation at a much lower cost than most others. Primary care physicians are the key to establishing it. I think it's a wonderful idea.
