DIRECT PRIMARY CARE MEMBERSHIPS FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES

Employer groups of 5-50 employees

We know the price of health insurance for your employees is out of control. This is frequently due to overutilization of expensive visits to Urgent Care or he Emergency room. Many, if not most small businesses are no longer offering it to their people. Many owners have expressed interest in giving their employees something and that something can be a membership in our office. For a low monthly fee, you can now give your employees unlimited primary care. Studies have shown DPC reduces ER visits, expensive tests and consults, not to mention employee missed time from work.

Along with the awesome services available for individuals also applying to your employees, there are multiple other ways businesses can benefit.

• Complete price transparency and predictability

• No stress dealing with insurance

• For employees without insurance, DPC provides an affordable option for their primary care

• For companies sending employees to the federal exchange, those plans usually have high deductibles. A DPC membership can help minimize outrageous out of pocket expenses for employees

• For companies who provide insurance, as premiums increase, higher deductibles are the more affordable option. Contributing to a DPC membership dramatically reduces employees’ out of pocket expenses

• With a $5,000 annual deductible, a DPC membership can provide 80-90% of actual medical care for the equivalent of fifteen percent of the deductible

• We save on office visits, labs and medication costs

• 24/7 Emergency Triage support-for every Emergency Room visit we prevent, the membership can pay for itself for several years

• Less time away from work for employees because of improved availability, short wait times and e-mail access to the doctor for minor issues and quick questions

• Potential savings on Workman’s Compensation claims

• Decreased insurance claims +flat or lower premiums

• DOT physicals included as part of the membership fee

• A DPC membership, in combination with a high deductible insurance plan provides nearly complete coverage for employees at a lower cost than standard insurance coverage

The not-so fine print:

• 5 or more employees enrolled for business price

• Additional family members of employees welcome to enroll – our board-certified family physician cares for all ages. See our member benefits page for all the services we offer.

• Employers may choose to cover anything from 0-100% of membership fees, and/or additional wholesale labs, imaging, and medications.

• New patients typically seen within 1-2 weeks of enrollment to establish care, weekend visits offered for ease of establishing care. Established patients offered same day visits for urgent issues.

• Billing is run automatically on the 5th of each month

• While DPC can manage 80-90% of your typical health care needs, we do recommend having something (medical cost sharing program. Insurance etc.) to cover rare expensive things like hospitalization or emergency room care

• We do not prescribe chronic narcotics, benzodiazepines or amphetamines
