Patient Badshah Rahman waits to get his blood pressure checked in the Family Van in Boston, Massachusetts August 9, 2010. Every week, dozens of residents from this low-income Boston neighborhood visit the Family Van, a nonprofit clinic which performs simple, free health screenings that can alert patients to impending health problems. Advocates say this approach can help control the rising cost of health care by helping people with chronic diseases to stay out of the emergency room. Picture taken August 9, 2010.
