Your Health, Your Privacy, Our Priority

PriorityDirectMED uses a hybrid Direct Care Model (DPC) to offer high quality, affordable, and convenient healthcare. 

​

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is an innovative model which is growing across the United States. DPC practices offer a unique membership-based approach. A simple flat rate monthly fee is charged for comprehensive coverage of all primary care services. Adequate monthly fees allow practices to reduce their total number of patients, which supports a higher level of personal care. This eliminates undesired fee-for-service incentives in primary care, which can distort healthcare decision-making by rewarding volume over value.

Patients go to their primary care provider for all routine and preventive services like checkups, urgent care and chronic care management. Primary care, operating as it should, can address up to 90% of a patient’s healthcare needs. DPC practices can diminish dependence on more expensive parts of the system, such as specialist care, urgent care, emergency rooms, advanced imaging and hospitals. Insurance is maintained separately to cover hospitalization and more expensive specialty care when needed. DPC has successfully controlled costs both through control of chronic illness, the reduction of administrative expenses, and decrease in urgent care and emergency room use.

​

Because of smaller patient panels, we are able to offer same or next-day appointments with minimal waiting for your urgent care and primary care needs. We offer telehealth and in office appointments. Patients can see the same provider for all visits, which are usually scheduled for 30-60 minutes. Our Primary Care Membership Program is one solution we offer to help manage healthcare costs. Membership also includes access to your provider after hours via a HIPAA compliant portal, text, email, and phone. Some restrictions with after-hours do apply.

​

Our Primary Care Membership Program is ideal for individuals and families who may not have medical insurance, have a high deductible, or you just want to enjoy the benefits of knowing your healthcare provider is available for you when you need care. In order to keep our panel small and provide more personalized care, we are only accepting Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, & CIGNA for insurance carriers. For more information about insurance, see our FAQs.
