Twitter side-effect #2: If you’re trying to get a doctor, dentist, or eye appointment in the San Francisco Bay Area, be prepared to wait a while, as people are trying to book their appointments while their insurance is still in effect.
@AccordionGuy Hmm, will 5000 hurried people make that much of an impact on the healthcare system of a city of 750k? And I think the whole SFBA is almost ten million.
@radehi Yes — under normal circumstances, primary care physicians are pretty booked, and with under 700 of them in San Francisco County, even one-tenth of that number can fill up appointment slots pretty quickly.
@radehi No problem. I thought there’d be more doctors in SF County, too.
