Direct Primary Care Doesn't Skim off the Top

1/17/2018

 
Patients who join Direct Primary Care practices, like Direct Doctors, often express wonderment at how we are able to spend more time with our patients, never make them feel rushed, never make them wait, and get back to them quickly with answers to their questions.  Here’s how we make this happen and why your typical primary care office cannot.

At Direct Primary Care practices across the country, doctors are breaking down the traditional barriers that are put up between patient and doctor.  At Direct Doctors, while we are not concierge, our business model is simple.  Patients pay a monthly fee directly to their doctor.  The doctor pays overhead expenses to run the practice and then pays him/herself the rest.  In this model, patients pay doctors directly and doctors can cut out the multitude of middlemen skimming off the top while expertly blocking access to your doctor ;).
