Direct Primary Care

Membership that puts your physician within reach

Cash-pay Direct Primary Care, explained simply: you become a member, and you get direct, fast access to your doctor.

How cash-pay Direct Primary Care works

Instead of billing insurance for each visit, you pay a membership fee directly to the practice. That fee funds your access: time with your physician, quick scheduling and an ongoing relationship.

Direct Primary Care is a cash-pay membership. The practice does not bill insurance for the services covered under the membership fee. Patients still need separate insurance for hospital care, specialists and emergencies.

  • 01

    Direct access to your physician

    Your membership connects you directly to the doctor who knows you, not a call center or a rotating schedule.

  • 02

    Same-day or within-hours visits

    When something comes up, you are seen in hours or the same day instead of waiting weeks for an opening.

  • 03

    No insurance billing or prior authorizations

    Your care is not shaped by billing codes or approvals. Time goes to you, not paperwork.

  • 04

    Prevention, longevity and a lasting relationship

    Visits focus on staying well and planning for the long term, with the same physician over time.
