What's Cheaper Than Pediatric Care?

In these days of rising health care costs, the finger has been pointed at physicians as the cause of these increases. Because of these charges each physician should look critically at his own fee structure and try to compare it with other commodities in today9s budgets. I have done just that. In totaling the cost of complete well-child care for a child and continuing care through the age of 20 years, I was surprised to find that in the present fee structure it costs a family $464.25.
