There are two ways to hire us:
or
- Become an ongoing concierge direct primary care patient.
If you chose to pay by the individual visit, we'll work on your immediate medical issue which may include your exam, labs, orders for imaging and follow up phone consults. OR you may try us and -- once you love our team -- join as an ongoing patient we follow closely. It's your choice.
Meanwhile many people pay a concierge fee to see their physician BUT ARE STILL TIED UP going to a clinic location.
It is different here as an ongoing patient. Here is the huge advantage: now your treatment and appointments are in the comfort of your own home. Over the typical year an ongoing patient's total to be seen at home is similar to driving concierge clinic.
Wouldn’t you like your life to be that easy?
Fees vary depending on travel time to your location and the level of treatment needed. Most of our local area house calls are between $400 (straight forward pediatrics) and $700 (complex intake exam with imaging orders, follow up, visiting nurse and DME orders). We do not bill insurance for our time in your home. We do send your insurance with orders to laboratories, nursing, home health, physical therapy, imaging and other services by outside agencies.
That is similar to many urgent care centers or Emergency Room copay -- and ours include follow up questions after the appointment. We are FAR less once all the extra ER charges hit your deductable.
New patients pay their fee via credit card when the appointment time is set for you. Concierge and ongoing patients may apply for other payment methods. (Via check, monthly payments, ….otherwise we would have to discuss Roosevelt-era style payments of two chickens or your favorite horse.)
We discovered that many people can actually save money as soon as they remember the size of their deductible. It’s clearly more satisfying medical care.
