Still have questions about the Gold Plan? Here are some common ones we hear from employers:

Does this replace insurance? No. DPC is primary care only. Your employees keep existing coverage for ER visits, specialists, and hospitalizations.

Do employees need insurance to join? No. DPC works with or without it. Employees who have coverage keep it for ER visits and specialists. The Gold Plan handles primary care.

Do I control my employees' tier? You set the Gold baseline. Employees can choose to upgrade to Platinum on their own.

What reporting do I get? Quarterly de-identified aggregate metrics: visit volume, same-day access rate, preventive visit numbers. No individual names or health details.

Call or text 828-544-1018 with any other questions.

Did you know you may be able to use your HSA for your Direct Primary Care membership?

If you have a Health Savings Account (HSA), you may be able to use those funds to pay for eligible healthcare expenses, including certain Direct Primary Care membership fees and other qualified medical services, depending on your plan and current regulations.

Using your HSA can be a convenient way to invest in your health while taking advantage of your pre-tax healthcare dollars.

Not sure if your HSA covers your DPC membership? We recommend checking with your HSA administrator or tax advisor to confirm your eligibility.

Have questions about our membership or payment options? We're happy to help!

Your competitors are offering the same benefits package they've had for 10 years.

What if you offered something different?

The Gold Plan gives your team a real primary care home. Same-day or next-day access. Annual physicals. A provider who knows their name.

It's not just a benefit. It's a reason to stay. Good employees notice when a company invests in them, and they remember it at renewal time.

$65/month per employee.

Did you know the average doctor's appointment lasts just 7-10 minutes? Here's why, and how we're changing that for our patients.
Insurance reimbursement rates go down every year. That forces primary care doctors to pack their schedules, see as many patients as possible, and rush through every visit. It's not what doctors want, it's what the insurance system demands.
At Emerald Health Direct Primary Care in downtown Hickory, we've opted out of that system entirely. We charge a simple monthly cash fee that covers all your primary care needs: no per-visit billing, no co-pays, no rushing.
What that means for you:
βœ… Same-day or next-day appointments
βœ… Telehealth visits
βœ… Direct messaging with your doctor
βœ… A physician who has time to actually listen
We still recommend keeping insurance for emergencies, surgeries, and imaging, but for everyday primary care, we've got you covered.
Curious? Give us a call and we'll walk you through exactly how Direct Primary Care works.
