We've had home-visit GPs in Australia for a few years now. There's multiple to choose from, and they're all covered by Medicare (so it's "free" to use).
It's super handy for us, having 2 people in our family with illnesses that require regular doctor visits (once or twice a month on average). If it's night time and we need the GP, we don't have to worry about waking up the baby, loading up the kids and nappy bags and everything we need into the car, etc.
We only go and visit our actual family GP if we need prescriptions renewed, or we want to talk to him about a bigger issue or general questions. Eg stuff that isn't urgent, so we don't waste the home-visit GP's time. Then again, the home-visit GPs have told us multiple times that they're happy to come out no matter how small the issue, and they prioritise/triage calls so you're never keeping a more urgent case waiting.
