Concierge Pediatrics Membership Benefits | Marlboro, NJ
What is direct care?
Direct primary care (DPC) practices offer a full range of primary care services for a monthly or annual retainer fee paid directly to the practice. Instead of involving insurance companies for preventive and routine physician visits, a DPC practice bills patients directly via monthly membership fee, and in return, the patients become "members" of the office and enjoy enhanced access to their doctor and to medical care.
By cutting out the very expensive middleman of insurance, the doctor can provide longer visit times, same or next-day appointments, phone/video visits if practical, and the patient has direct access to their doctor via phone, text, and email. DPC clinics limit the number of members in order to ensure that the physician has sufficient availability for members of the practice. Although direct primary care models do not utilize insurance for the majority of services, families still can use their insurance plan for extensive laboratory testing, hospitalization, vaccination, or imaging.
