• Research shows over 70% of doctor office visits are unnecessary and cost an average of $153
• Over 66% of all ER visits are non-emergencies and cost an average of $1200
• Doctors are not paid for phone or email consultations leaving them no incentive to use the lower cost settings
• 50 million uninsured ? tens of millions underinsured ? even those who are insured are forced to make choices between rent, groceries and basic healthcare

Many factors are contributing to the costly, wasteful healthcare system

• Inefficient overuse of expensive medical settings like the doctor?s office and the ER
• Employers losing $$ billions due to runaway health premiums eating up their company profits

PROBLEM EVEN GREATER IN RURAL AREAS
