Abstract

The article discusses the way doctors are paid and the quality of medical care in the U.S., focusing on the company Qliance Health, founded by cousins and medical doctors Garrison and Erika Bliss. Topics include Garrison's idea to create an affordable version of concierge medicine; the Bliss's belief that the model reduces the cost of care while improving quality; and the idea that primary and specialty care are fundamentally different services.
