I don’t see whats wrong with it. ITs not like they are sending accident victims to walmart…

He’s talking about like an after hours doctor thing, walk in with your insurance card, bing bang out. Stitches, and simple things could be accomplished there.

the 15 times that I’ve been in the ER, I had to wait forever… There was one time that I actually went in instantly and they thought i was having a heart attack. (high blood pressure lol)

I agree with mccain

Ok. I used walmart pharmacy for awhile for a few prescriptions. After a year of dealing with their serious lack of brain cells and knowledge of any kind of medicine, I got the hell away from them. I got the same allergy pill refilled every month, and every month they managed to lose an order, fill the wrong dosage, misprint the label, etc etc. A phoned-in refill would still take 2 hours in the store to get.  
I would put my own stitches in rather than trust any form of clinic housed in a walmart, Or just bleed out.

I have used the walmart pharmacy before. Its great for simple meds but if I was on multiple pills, I sure as hell would not choose walmart to get advice of which ones to not mix together and advice.

Do those immediate care places take insurance, or is it just cash only?

Both…

At least the after-hours care does… I’ve been there a couple times; although you can wait an hour there… better than 3-6 at the ER though…

I’ve had bad experiences with doctors outside of the emergency room.

I went to that place in the dent towers after I got hit in the foot with a slapshot and couldn’t walk.

asshole didn’t even see the break in the x-rays.

foot turned out to be broken

Thats why I say we need Universal health care. WE are already paying for it in the form of taxes for Medicaid ,Medicare or whatever, and on top of that we pay for our own health insurance through work or independent plans. Hell in the long run Universal health care might even be cheaper for us. Not to mention doctors wont be so quick to discharge patients like they are now. Lets face it. Most doctor’s offices are run like assembly lines. Drop a pill here and move onto the next.

I’m pretty sure he wasn’t just saying walmart… I got the impression he wants something like that… just a bunch of locations so people can get to care when they need it. Whether its installed in walmart… or some plaza. ER times really do suck.

I don’t feel this is a critical issue though.
