Both Hands clapping for the Direct Primary Care movement – Announcing the Formation of a New, Grassroots Organization Supporting Patients and Physicians — DPC Alliance
The Direct Primary Care Alliance Supports Patients
In this context, direct primary care patients can expect to have a better, more personal relationship with their physicians. Many Direct Primary Care Alliance physicians offer direct access between the physician and patient via email, texting, or videoconferencing. Others offer flexible scheduling, after-hours visits, and home visits. Not only are patients offered transparent pricing for their primary care needs, many direct primary care practices have worked to negotiate low, cash-based pricing for their patients for labs, radiology, and specialists visits as well.
Read the whole thing and suggest to your primary care doctor that they investigate starting a DPC practice.
