I'd like to see any funding for that sort of thing actually go to non-affiliated, preferably non-profit, urgent care facilities rather than large for-profit retail entities.

I am a HUGE fan of using the local University's urgent care center, which is NOT an ER, for non-life-threatening but pressing matters such as strep tests, minor stuff that needs stitches, tetanus shots, ear infections, stuff like that. The ER charges me $50 copay... the University charges the same as an office visit, and you get seen within 10-20 minutes. Downside is sitting amongst the undergrads who are all there with alcohol poisoning... tut tut...

Emergency Rooms You'll Die For McCain is really out of touch. I wonder if he has ever been to a Walmart, or is aware of the anti-labor and discriminatory practices they employ, or how they shit on their employees until they simply don't care anymore... And here he is promoting them as a host for EMERGENCY MEDICAL CLINICS? AWESOME idea. I award you a 2-for-1 special. You can get your monthly physical where you assure Rating: 5
