Tips for Affordable Healthcare

The broken healthcare system has made care expensive and places a burden on our families.

  • High deductibles that cause you to pay for most visits throughout the year

  • Endless copays

  • Insurance plans that won’t cover common services

  • Insurance plans that are confusing and require frustrating phone calls to clarify coverage

Direct primary care provides better care AND can reduce cost.

  • Membership can frequently be less than what many families spend on clinic and urgent care visits

  • Easy access to a clinic can reduce your risk of needing emergency care, one of the greatest costs to a family

  • There are no copays, and no hidden fees

  • Common services are covered

  • Our communication is spectacular

We do have some additional pro tips that may help cover the costs of a DPC membership

  • If you have a flexible spending account, or FSA, your FSA funds can frequently be used to pay your DPC care.

    • This depends on the specific terms of your FSA, however, so we recommend that you talk to your FSA administrator and make sure that you understand your FSA’s rules. Frequently you will need an itemized list of the all of the care you received at the clinic- and that is something we can easily accommodate.

  • Consider a high-deductible health plan (HDHP):

    • These plans often have lower premiums but higher deductibles, making them a good choice for supplementing DPC when you need more extensive care. 

  • Health Savings Account (HSA) eligibility:

    • If you're eligible for an HSA, it can be a good way to save money on medical expenses, including those that are not covered by DPC.
