  • Have insurance, but want better care?

 

Everyone benefits from care that prioritizes you, your time and your money.

It’s called Direct Primary Care. I love it and think you’ll love it, too.

Here’s the gist: Western Foothills Direct Primary Care doesn’t bill insurance, therefore doesn’t have an office schedule mandated by the needs of corporate healthcare or your insurance company. You and I get to decide how frequent and how long your office visits are. Become a member of the practice for a reasonable monthly fee, and get unlimited office visits, your doctor’s cell phone number, and a whole lot more. The monthly membership fee covers everything done in the office with no surprise charges or copays.

Joining a DPC practice is similar to joining a gym, costs less than what most people pay for cell phone coverage, and there are health insurance companies that cover all or part of the monthly fee – here in Maine, Mending Health and Health Access Solutions. Insurance companies, especially Medicaid and Medicare, will eventually jump at working with DPC clinics, because they have been around long enough to have solid data proving they do a better job keeping their patients healthy and out of the emergency department and the hospital.
