Doctors should charge by time, not transactions
Posted by Jay on
Charging by transactions means the more doctors do, the more they get paid, and the more your wallet suffers. It also means high-speed churn, not high quality, personalized service. And if you go to the doctor, the ER, or an urgent care center, and you’re sent home, and something changes that will affect your outcome, you’ve got to make another appointment and pay for another appointment.
We think that’s unsafe, inefficient, unfair and wrong.
That’s why Sherpaa is now offering two new pricing plans to ensure everyone can access our care:
30 days for $150
1 year for $40 per month
30 days of Sherpaa for $150
Typical issues perfect for this plan are a sprained ankle, strep throat, a skin infection, etc.. Instead of going to the ER or an urgent care center and exposing yourself to more infections or waiting 22 days for a PCP visit, just fire up Sherpaa. It’s an accessible quick fix that helps solve problems in a modern way, but also keeps costs low. Why 30 days? Because things take time to get better. Good care is ongoing communication and check-ins to ensure things are getting better. But sometimes things get worse and you need local, in-person care coordination with specialists. Thirty days is the magic number where the vast majority of these kinds of issues get resolved.

This is for folks who want peace of mind that they always have a direct line to their own personal doctors no matter where they are in the world. It’s also for people who have ongoing needs on a monthly basis and the only option for them is old-fashioned, in-person, expensive office visits, urgent care visits, or trips to the ER. As always, once you’re a member, it’s:
Unlimited 24/7 access to your Sherpaa physicians while home or traveling
Expedited appointments and care coordination with local, hand-picked specialists
Personalized recommended preventive tests ordered and interpreted
