Lookup direct pay family doctor office in your area. I pay about 80 bucks a month for doctor I can call, text, spend 30 minutes of I visit. She have arrangement with testing lab with really tiny costs for tests, x-ray, etc. And because of direct relationship, she indeed can track my health over the years.

I still have high deductible insurance to cover something serious, but otherwise pay cash for routine stuff.

This is the way - the Direct Primary Care model. Find the smartest DPC doc that you can and you will be free from so much of our broken system.
