What is Direct Primary Care?

Convenient, cost effective way for patients to receive high quality healthcare
Patients have a direct relationship with their provider
Providers respond to patient’s texts, emails, and phone calls the same day
Sick visits are often taken care of via “telehealth” and the patient does not always have travel to an office
Providers spend more time with each patient resulting in more time for questions and formulating an individualized plan of care and a broader scope of care, drastically reducing the amount of specialist referrals
Takes healthcare back to the good old days when patients knew their provider personally and you pay for services directly-no middle man (insurance company)
80-90% of the healthcare services you need can be taken care of in the office
Patients or their employer only pay a monthly membership fee directly to the practice for primary care services
Direct Primary Care is NOT insurance it is simply healthcare
No bills to insurance, no insurance claims to be processed
Providers take a needs-driven approach to their patient interactions rather than being driven by a reimbursement model
No incentive to force patients into the office for an unnecessary face-to-face visit in person, when a webcam, phone call, or email exchange would do
For the same monthly membership fee, the patient can be seen as many times as necessary at no extra charge
