I just signed up with iCare, a program offered by Banner Health that replaces my PCP with a team of 3 doctors, a nurse and a Health Coach. This program is for elderly people who have hard time getting to Dr. office. I get to keep my specialists like neurologist, etc. I’ll have BP, etc. monitored electronically and by video. The doctor who interviewed me at home yesterday was perfect. And he agreed with my reasons for refusing colonoscopy for IDA. For someone who lives alone this sounds good and costs me nothing due to Medicare and Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance. It will be interesting to see how it goes. I’ll meet nurse and health coach soon.
