Why Direct Primary Care (DPC)?
Why does DPC benefit individuals?
Zero Wait Times and 24/7 Access
Reduced panel sizes allow same-day appointments. “Frictionless” access via secure messaging or video eliminates the average 20-day wait for new patients, ensuring acute needs are met immediately without the lobby wait.
Extended 30-to-60 Minute Visits
Appointments last 30 to 60 minutes rather than the industry standard of 15. This allows time to uncover root causes and build a genuine relationship without the patient feeling rushed.
No Copays or Surprise Bills
A fixed monthly membership covers almost all primary care needs. There are no copays, deductibles, or surprise “balance bills” arriving weeks later, transforming healthcare into a predictable budget item.
Focus on Prevention and Lifestyle
Doctors focus on diet, sleep, and stress to prevent illness, not just treat symptoms. This “lifestyle medicine” approach addresses root causes, helping reverse pre-diabetes and improve mental health.
Better Control of Chronic Diseases
Continuous monitoring leads to superior management of diabetes and hypertension. Diabetic patients are 39% more likely to control blood sugar levels thanks to consistent coaching and easy access to their physician.
VIP-Level Patient Satisfaction
Patient satisfaction scores rival luxury brands with Net Promoter Scores over +80. Patients feel known and trusted, replacing the anxiety of “the system” with a personalized, caring medical home.
Why Direct Primary Care (DPC)?
Why does DPC benefit employers?
Immediate Total Cost Reduction
Switching to DPC can reduce total cost of care by over 20%. Reduced claims for urgent care, imaging, and specialists offset the membership fee, often saving over $500 per member per year.
Fewer Catastrophic Shock Claims
Better chronic disease management prevents “shock claims” like heart attacks. Proactive care stops small health fires from becoming expensive infernos that trigger stop-loss insurance deductibles.
Powerful Recruitment and Retention
Virtual consults and no-wait appointments mean employees don’t lose half a day for a doctor’s visit. Immediate care reduces “presenteeism,” getting sick employees back to full productivity faster.
Long-Term Cost Control
Managing health rather than sickness flattens the long-term cost curve. Over 3-5 years, a workforce with controlled chronic conditions is significantly cheaper to insure, breaking the cycle of annual premium hikes.
Wellness Programs That Work
The DPC physician acts as the clinical “quarterback” making wellness actionable. Unlike generic apps, medically supervised plans actually reverse risk factors like obesity and pre-diabetes, generating hard ROI.
Perfect Pair for High Deductibles
DPC handles 90% of needs with $0 out-of-pocket, allowing employers to confidently switch to lower-cost High Deductible Health Plans. Employees get better day-to-day care while staying protected from disasters.
Health is a state of body. Wellness is a state of being.
