Co-ops have been considered since the time Obama was in office - and have been around much before that.

Community Dialysis Houses
Centers where patients can practice self-care.  One person who would have been an excellent candidate was known by many of us in this organization back in the day.  Dialysis patient Frank Brown had a story written about him: Dead Man Fighting - Frank Brown by Bruce Anderson.  He nearly testified at the U.S. Senate Hearings, but by then he was in too bad of shape to travel.
