NY regulators frown on doctor's flat-fee system

Crain's New York reports:
A New York City doctor's flat-fee, $79-a-month medical practice has run afoul of state insurance regulators who have told him to shut it down.

Dr. John Muney said Wednesday he's negotiating to try to keep the arrangement at his AMG Medical Group centers. The fee includes unlimited office visits, some tests and in-office surgeries. It doesn't cover treatment requiring hospitalization or specialized care.
Government wants artificially higher prices for medical care so they can control you life.Make no mistake,they are the enemy of affordable health care.
