Hi, I tried an HMO plan psychiatrist once, I had to wait 30 minutes past my appointment time, then she took 2 phonecalls during my time. Plus she spent most of my time entering my information into her computer (with much hunting, pecking, and waiting on response), rather than just taking notes and dealing with the computer later. I didn't go back and didn't use the HMO plan again. Fortunately my insurance also has the option of choosing any doctor and doing the billing myself, though I have to pay more that way.
