DPC is a business model in healthcare that removes insurance billing from the patient/provider relationship. DPC is a subscription or membership model where the patient pays a low monthly fee for unlimited access to their provider and covered services within the clinic, this includes all office visits in primary care, clinic urgent care visits, telehealth visits, in-house lab testing, discounted send-out labs and wholesale medications. There is no copay and no additional costs.

We don’t use car insurance to pay for routine maintenance including tires, windshield wipers and oil changes because it would make our car insurance premiums too expensive; this is what has happened with health insurance. By bypassing health insurance claims for routine primary care visits, we remove up to 80% of all claims from the system allowing health insurance companies to focus on the more pressing claims for surgeries, hospitalizations and emergency care. More importantly, with DPC there are no surprise bills, you will know exactly how much your care costs within the primary care office for nearly all of your concerns.

I strive to ensure that patients are evaluated within 24-48 hours for concerns. I will also strive to have a strong relationship with my patients so that I know their past medical history, present medical conditions and anticipate potential problems.
