I am surprised that companies like GM and ford don't have clinics for their employees and retirees because it will help keep costs contained.

So, I would expect the copay and other financial arrangements to be the same as they are now.

When I first saw this I thought that maybe Disney was opening a clinic for its uninsured employees. I was wrong.
