How Direct Primary Care Works
Membership-based primary care, without insurance in the middle of every visit.
Sound familiar?
- You waited weeks for an appointment that lasted twelve minutes.
- You saw a different provider than last time and told your whole story again.
- A bill arrived a month later for an amount nobody could explain.
- You had a quick question, and the only answer was “make an appointment.”
Direct Primary Care is built to fix exactly that.
What is Direct Primary Care?
A membership model for primary care. Instead of billing insurance for every visit, you pay one flat monthly fee directly to the clinic. There is no catch.
- No insurance in the exam room. Nobody else dictates how your visit should go.
- More time and a real relationship with a provider who knows you.
- Direct access: unlimited office visits, text, email, and video.
- Not health insurance. Keep coverage for the big things; we encourage at least a catastrophic plan.
It brings medicine back to the way it used to be: focused on you.
A sick day, two ways
Say you wake up with a sore throat and a fever.
A typical office
- Call the front desk and wait on hold.
- Take the next open slot, often days away — or head to urgent care.
- See whoever is available, for a short visit.
- Pay a copay today, and get a bill for the tests later.
With Care4Me
- Text or call your provider directly.
- Be seen the same day or the next business day.
- An unhurried visit with the provider who knows your history, and a rapid strep test right in the office.
- No copay and no bill. It’s part of your membership.
