Out of the Box: The Future of Retail Medical ClinicsWilliam M. SageUniversity of Texas at Austin School of Law; University of Texas at Austin - Dell Medical School February 2, 2009 Harvard Law & Policy Review, Vol. 3, 2009 U of Texas Law, Law and Econ Research Paper No. e552 Abstract: The 2000s was mostly a lost decade for reform of the health care delivery system. Among the few significant innovations was the retail medical clinic, where individuals could receive basic health care at posted prices without appointments, typically from nurse practitioners or physician assistants. Most retail clinics were associated with chain drugstores, supermarkets, or other "big box" retailers. This short article describes the implications of the retail clinic model for US health policy and health care reform. It is no longer available from the online journal in which it originally appeared.
