DIRECT PRIMARY CARE

Read on.
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is becoming a popular way for consumers to buy local healthcare in an accessible, affordable way directly from a clinician they trust. DPC connects the clinician and consumer within the healthcare system more closely by allowing the consumer to subscribe to high-quality, accessible care enabling them to get they answers they need from a specific clinician in their community.
The concept of purchasing healthcare directly is re-designing the healthcare landscape to encourage relationships between consumers and clinician, and for people to become more knowledgeable about how they purchase their healthcare & wellness services.
Here are the Direct Primary Care basics: a Doctor or Clinician offers a certain number of "shares" (aka memberships) to the public. Typically the share consists of visits, but other additional services may be included. Interested consumers purchase a membership and in return receive primary care services inclusive of the majority of their primary and preventative care needs.
There are many local specialists partners, who offer direct primary care members consultations or services at transparent pricing. When you choose a direct primary care physician, they will help guide you to the highest-quality specialty care along with pricing most often far less than insurance driven counterparts.
This arrangement creates several rewards for both the clinician and the consumer
