Interesting idea. Doesn't "urgent care" imply that a home visit wouldn't be suitable? If I was in urgent need then a hospital visit with access to all the equipment an emergency room has would be the best option right?

1) Initial thought - cool, but then 2) I'd still want to use insurance, particularly as there is variability in the cost. 3) Some things listed require prescriptions to be filled. In those cases, I assume I'm still going to have to get dressed and drive to the pharmacy, at which point, what it is the benefit? 4) Some insurance carriers provide services similar to this.

3) Again, I'd make that a bit more visible in any marketing. (As a single person, if I'm going to have to schlep myself to the pharmacy, I might as well start at the clinic that's in the same building. So, I'm clearly not your targetmarket on this point.)
