David,
Anytime, and please forgive the effusive, convoluted manner in which I dealt with your question.
Our state health CO-OP was awarded 58 million federal dollars to get up and running. Reimbursement for providers will be equivalent to the Blues, and preventative services will be 100% covered and 25 dollar copay for primary care charges for doctor visits (not preventative care) in the Gold plan.
So I agree your question will continue to become ever more significant, and education about distinguishing wellness vs. comprehensive care will continue to be ever important.
