What is Direct Primary Care?
What do you recommend about healthcare insurance?
What if I need a specialist?
One of the best parts of direct primary care practices is the wide range of services that are offered. From dermatology to pediatrics, you can get most of your care in one place and from one doctor. For more complex issues, a direct primary care physician will refer patients out to specialists. In these instances, direct primary care clinics have agreements with the most commonly referred specialists for discounted rates. But for everything else, your direct primary care team will take care of you and your family.
How are medications covered?
Your physician will help you get the best medicine for you and your particular situation as affordably as possible. Most generic medications are included in your membership. Otherwise, our wholesale pricing is passed on to you.
Where is the clinic?
The clinic is “mobile,” meaning that we come to you if that is your preference. This means house visits are at no extra charge during phase 1 of the clinic development. There is in-office visit options for patients who prefer this. Visits may also occur via secure video. Communication is always available via secure text and phone.
Can I pay for my membership with my FSA, HSA, or HRA account?
There is an executive order for the IRS to consider allowing patients to use their HSA accounts for DPC membership but no official allowance for this. Both HRAs and FSAs are allowed.
