The Problem: Today's Healthcare System Puts Profit Before the Needs of Doctors and Patients

For parents, there are few things more worrisome or stressful than caring for a sick child. Yet the way in which pediatric care is typically provided only adds to that stress. Instead of keeping your children in the calm, comfortable surroundings of home, you are forced to take them to a crowded office and endure long waits among other sick children. And even then, you aren’t always able to see your child’s own doctor.

This troubled system, borne of declining insurance reimbursements and rising malpractice premiums, forces many office-based pediatricians to see up to 40 patients a day in order to meet overhead costs and keep their practices afloat. Even worse, this system makes it increasingly difficult to maintain a strong doctor-family relationship and truly serve the needs of every child.
