    It works for me because I can measure blood pressure at home, and I can preview the quality of imaging, in this case ultrasound, before discussing my condition with the doctor. Also, I found a very thorough family doctor at a reasonable distance, and my annual medical exam there shows results on Mychart. I do not have much quality specialist care nearby, so I go to CC for that.
