personally i like the nurse call option. i know my body pretty well and i hate having to go to the doctor just to say "welp, you have another kidney infection! here are the antibiotics see you next time!" Its a waste of money on everyone's part. Or when the kids get an ear infection. You always know what it is, but you have to bundle them up, drag them unhappy and sick to the doctor, etc. So much easier to just call and say "My kid has an ear infection. Can you call a perscription in and someone can pick it up on their way home?"

Yeah, some health plans seem to have a good service like that. The only thing I've ever encountered is the evil UR variety which urges you to take two aspirin and relax when you have flesh eating bacteria in ur base eatin ur doods, etc.
