You still can go to any other doctor's office and just ignore this enterprise. That is all this is, an enterprise.
I think in this business model, you're going to have the time to sit and discuss with your doctor the treatment options, if what is advertised is true.
Socialized Medicine, as it has come to be known, is a system where you don't have a choice by to go to doctor's the State approves and to receive treatment the State allows. This is something much different. This is not ObamaCare; now that's socialized medicine.

Yes, I believe you are missing something.
The business model here includes the key concepts that the doctors are employees. They, and their patients will no longer have exclusive control over decisions about testing and maybe even treatment. Those decisions will be guided "from above". Sure people can go elsewhere, but that doesn't change the model in effect in a place to which people are moving because medical care with accessibility and choice is so important to them.
And, as a 'centrist' on this, I'll say it again: This is not the wrong road to travel to improve health care. It's just so ironic that Mr. Morse is driving the bus.
