One Man’s Quest to Make Healthcare More Accessible and Affordable
Today, millions of people benefit from accessible, affordable healthcare at walk-in clinics close to home. These facilities provide high-quality basic healthcare at reasonable prices seven days a week. During the COVID-19 pandemic, these clinics were a critical outlet for testing and vaccinations against the deadly virus.
Retail clinics did not emerge without a fight. Web and others faced strong opposition from the medical establishment, skeptical third-party payors, and restrictive government regulations, as well as consumers who tended to believe that they could only get quality healthcare in a doctor’s office or hospital on someone else’s schedule at unpredictable costs.
Here Be Dragons is the true story of what happens when you are bold enough to try changing a hidebound, multi-trillion-dollar industry. Read about Web’s role as one of the earliest and leading movers in developing networks of the ubiquitous retail-based and urgent care clinics we rely on today.
