Push to create ‘pay-what-you-want’ GP practices
Dr Daniel Epstein says giving patients freedom to pick their own fee could help GPs escape universal bulk-billing

The idea is based on the system used by a not-for-profit vegetarian restaurant chain called Lentil as Anything which offers meals free of charge in Sydney and Melbourne.
