Sounds like “Concierge Medicine” for truckers. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. It’s the free market system at its finest!

There are all sorts of prople who get the equivalent of “concierge medicine” because of their status in life. If for no other reason than the paparazzi would be all over they guy if he had to wait in a doc’s waiting room. Sports figures who contract for a team doc.

No, “concierge medicine” is only a problem if it is done by average doctors, for average patients.

I have yet to find a definition of an average doctor or an average patient.
The concept is a great idea and I suspect will work. Don’t most truckers have group health insurance?
