Doctor isn't paying overhead for an office, plus they get paid more than the co-pay by your insurance.

An average gp makes about 170k with tax benefits etc its probably closer to 200k. Assuming they get 3weeks of vacations that 102 dollars/hour. I don't see how 99 dollars per visit makes economic sense.

How many hours a week do they work? How many of those are overhead hours that Heal takes care of for them? How many of them are average? What other costs of running a clinic are there?
