In Ohio we have visiting physicians. It is covered by medicare/medicaid. It is very hard to see the same doctor more than one time. I think it goes back to the old joke, what do you call a doctor that finishes last in medical school?.... Doctor! They sure aren't the pro's from Dover. I terminated the service just to be allowed to find a doctor that didn't think I was too hard on to treat. I'd rather see a competent doctor that I have to struggle to see than an incompetent doctor that comes to the door. I haven't gone to a hospital except for tests on my heart, since I started seeing this guy. The visiting doctors had me in the hospital for breaking wind because they didn't like to read which is why they are visiting doctors. I hope your system in your state works better but in Ohio, the more patients that die on a doctor are referred to as experience in that area. Talk to some doctors and nurses. See what they think of traveling doctors? The best doctors I know only drive to different offices and Universities. Do you think you'd feel comfortable with a doctor that graduated from a technical college. I hate having to explain AD to a doctor that just caused it and has no clue about treating siezures. Oh yeah, after they send you to the hospital, you're on your own.
